Care to share what the units are for the y axis “response characteristic” are, and how they are defined and measured?

X= how much you are pressing on the gas pedal
Y= How much power you are getting

notice at the end power and pedal will meet at 100% so max power is the same with or without the responder

How do you measure the "power" for each distance of gas pedal travel? I am repeating the question, what are the units and how are they measured? Saying power is the same as saying response - it still does not explain exactly how you are obtaining the numbers plotted on the Y axis.

No one is measuring power, you are not reading the graph correctly.

The units are percentage of the input.


Google cobb linear vs full throttle , its the same concept and might explain it better than this graph.

Distance to the gas pedal = gas pedal input with 0% meaning you are not touching the gas pedal and 100% being wide open throttle (WOT)

You stated "Y= How much power you are getting". Then you state that no one is measuring power. That means you cannot tell me how the values for this graph are obtained. When one plots a graph of Y versus X, there has to be data that correlates each Y value with each X value. My question is simple and is just how you are generating this graph. When you display a graph, you should be able to say how you got the numbers. I understand the concept of nonlinear responses. I am not disputing that your device can change the throttle response and that you may get more "power" earlier for each distance of gas pedal travel. I just want to know how you generated this graph. Something had to be measured for you to present this graph. How did you do that? I am not challenging that your device does what you say it does. I am just allergic to "data" that has no units and their source cannot be provided.

Mike nor his company generated the graph. It's obviously by the manufacturer, Remus, as shown at the top of the graph. Maybe reaching out to them would be the right way to go about obtaining the information you seek.

Here is an example of the graph

At 50 % gas pedal , that's your x axis .
This means you have the gas pedal half way

On stock your engine would be operating at 50% output that's your Y axis

On Remus green graph at the same gas pedal position you are getting 70% output

On Remus red still same gas pedal position you are getting 80% output

Hope this explains it

Any use of non-OEM/aftermarket components has the potential to void a warranty claim. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the manufacturer has to demonstrate a nexus between the change you made and the failure. For example, a powertrain modification could not be the basis to deny warranty for a broken window regulator. However, if you had an issue related to engine electronics, throttle, etc. (don't know what it might possibly be, but just making the point clear), and they could determine that some non-BMW part had been used, BMWNA would be within the law to deny a warranty claim for that event.

These are calculated risks. For example, I've installed a new charge pipe and intercooler, balancing risks and benefits. Everyone will find their own comfort level.

Just decided it wasn't for me honestly plus with my meth kit activating at WOT it was messing up the sensor to activate the flow due to the change in pedal response from the Remus.

I would let it go for $175+shipping. If you are interested, let me know.

Nope, it's very simple. Just go back to the first page and I wrote everything you need to know to install it, including some pics for reference.
