The same shiny nob seems to work on everything from an Aston Martin to a Yugo! :roll:

At £29.95 it's amazing that Ferrari didn't bother to fit them as standard in the first place :lol:

It does go all the way up to 10 though... :lol:

Might be tempted if it went to eleven! :lol:

Besides it states they're only suitable for cars with injection but not for turbo'd cars.......... so which GTA is that exactly :roll:

What's the superglue for?

Presumably to glue the throttle wide open for even more power

or perhaps to glue your foot to the accelerator pedal for better response :wink:

To give to the Ferrari dealer so he can glue his hair back on once he's seen how you've wrecked the loom and ECU with a 30 pence potentiometer?

Why not go the whole hog and fit one to the engine temperature sensor as well - that way you could fool the engine into thinking its runnjing at minus 40 degrees and get the fuel injection to squirt even more fuel in. In fact - why bother with sensors at all - disconnect them all and just have a big row of dials like a 1970's stereo that you can play with until you get the car to run - might be an interesting new use for the original graphic equaliser - slide em all up for maximum power or all down for economy or in the middle to make it run just like Renault intended when it spent loads of dosh and research time in designing the ECU.

LOL might be quicker and easier to do that than wait for the DG ECU :lol:
