My Hike It XS pedal controller is out for delivery right now. I know it doesn't add any power, but the laggy throttle response is annoying at times, so I thought I'd give this a try for less than half the cost of the "Pedal Commander" to make it more responsive. Seems like a quality item too with the display screen and ease of switching between the various modes (or resorting to the stock tune) with the knob and buttons. Looking forward to trying it out.
I have the Banks Pedal Monster and love it............. ?
Like you mentioned it doesn't add any power but it makes my Corsa exhaust sound awesome :rock:

You will like the results . I have the same installed about a year ago and as you stated very easy to change adjustment settings . I mounted mine on the drivers side center console just below the center arm rest . I have it set at sport mode #7 and love it !

It's a solid winch and at $200 a great buy. It's just so slow that snails will give you the finger as they pass you when you are winching. I ran one for over 5 years on my JK.
The newer gen is just a tad over 25 just 5 below the 12000. In the end I'm hoping not to use it on myself. :headbang:

I got it installed last week and have been playing with the various settings. It definitely removes the sluggish/lethargic feeling of the 3.6 Pentastar (probably at the expense of fuel mileage, but whatever). I currently have it on Sport 8, I believe, but will probably dial it back to 6 or 7. Well, I say "installed", but really it's just wired in so far. I haven't decided where I want to mount the switch/display unit. There just aren't any good flat surfaces on the dash to put something like this. I thought I had found the perfect spot - on the center console right in front of the transfer case shifter (closest to the driver's seat) - but realized just in time that it would interfere with the parking brake when you put it down. Right now I just have it sitting loose inside the center console. I'll take look at sticking it to the side of it where you have yours. I really wish there was a good place on the dash to stick it so that you could see the display well and easily reach the switch, but I figure once you find the setting that you like the most, you probably won't be fooling with it much - other than when going off-road. Anyway... cool unit. Definitely improves my enjoyment of the vehicle.

It does give it more pep ! You are right on the settings once your done playing with it you will hardly ever touch it . And remember that the unit does slide out of the bracket when you do want to play with it !

Nice. So you used the bracket? Did you attach it with screws into your console or use the double-sided tape with it? I was just gonna use the double-sided tape to permanently stick it... somewhere, but that wouldn't work in that location. You'd have to be able to pull it up to see the display (at least if you do it while driving). Heck, I may just leave it where it is... loose inside the lower section of the console. I can easily pull it out to make changes - and the rest of the time it's tucked away out of sight. Still deciding...

double sided tape was used and just need to flip the arm rest up a bit and slide the unit out .

I ordered 4 inch drop sniper running boards. Should be here before Christmas. Pretty excited about it. I plan to put a lift and 37’s on in the spring so getting this out of the way now.

Thursday I should have my replacement NERF bars and sometime in the next month-ish I should have a MetalCloak bumper / skidplate showing up.
