Windbooster
These throttle controllers are great. Reduced the throttle lag dramatically from my car. Now when you push on the pedal you get instant response without that terrible delay. Great Job CMD

had the chip in for over six months now WOW what can I say I use to need a airstrip to overtake someone now I can go around three cars at once no joke this thing is amazing I use to struggle to up hills to the point it would nearly be easier to put in 4X4 to get up now I can hold 110km up most hills it exceeded my expectations considering I thought it was a lot of money if it doesn't do much I was wrong best money I ever spent cant recommend enough
Exceeds my expectations
I’ve only had my chip in for a week so it’s too soon to say much about fuel savings but I can tell you that as far as power goes this is the bee’s knees.
After a very simple installation I took the Navara out for a run. As recommended in the manual, I left the jumper on the median setting and cruised around he rural roads. I was pretty sure it felt less sluggish but thought maybe it was wishful thinking.
The next day I needed to take a longer trip which included some reasonable hills. I decided to move the setting up to produce more power, one setting down from the top.
This time there was no doubt at all. Normally my fifth gear tends not to get a lot of work because of the windy roads I travel on; if I back off to take a curve the engine doesn’t have enough power to accelerate again without shifting down. Not anymore. And on longer straights I felt like I could have used a sixth gear.
The biggest surprise was when I hit the big hill; not only was I able to go up in fifth gear, I was able to accelerate. I actually overtook someone going uphill in fifth gear. Anyone with a 2.5 Navara knows how unlikely that is.
For the trip home I took the setting back to the median setting just to check out the difference. Going up a similar hill I was able to sit on a 100kph in fifth gear, but not accelerate. But I have never been able to do that pre chip.
I’ll probably leave the upper settings for when I’m towing as it seemed like overkill to have that much power. I’m hoping the median setting will help with fuel economy.
Very happy with the results I’ve received. Highly recommend this product if you’re sick of the lack of power these Navaras have on factory settings.

BLOODY AWESOMENESS WIFE NICOLE OVER THE MOON WITH THE POWER DIFFERENCE. WELL DONE MORE THAN WHAT I EXPECTED FROM CHIP IN OUR 2015 AMAROK VW KEEP UP THE BRILLIANT WORK GUYS OH RECIEVED IT OVERNIGHT FROM QLD TO NSW
What I found
The purchase experience was soured by an unexpected $18 postage bill. Having said that the Chip arrived the next day.
Installation notes had to be printed up from a PDF and were general in nature but OK.
I waited a couple of days to test the product prior to writing this to see how it worked.
Fitted to my 200 series I am getting noticeable
improvement in acceleration (when required) and approx. 3 lt/100 km fuel saving when traveling around town. Have not done a country trip or towed yet.
