Today we are installing an electronic throttle controller from PowerPlus. Enjoy some informative insight and a quick how-to guide to installing this PowerPlus Throttle Controller on a 2013 Toyota Hilux d4d Manual.

Initially, I wasn't sure if a throttle controller would have much of a difference on my Hilux, but I was wrong! The installation was super quick, it really took under 10 minutes to install and they provide you with the instructions and everything you needed. It is difficult to explain how it feels when you use the ETC (Electronic Throttle Controller). To put it in simple terms, it adjusts the throttle response sensitivity, it does not change the power of your vehicle.

The normal mode has a very linear throttle response, sport mode has a more aggressive throttle response and eco mode has a sluggish throttle response. The most impressive feature is the ant-hijacking mode. Essentially it locks your throttle so that there is zero throttle response. You activate it but pushing a button sequence, enter a three-digit key and then it activates the lock, then you do the same to unlock it.

The 0-100 test is not scientific at all, but just a visual representation of how the throttle is affected. Many people ask me if I ever want to tune my Hilux and maybe one day, but an ETC is a good start to make your vehicle a bit more responsive or eco.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask in the comments below and I shall try and assist where I can!
