The Banks Pedal Monster is Gale Banks answer to all the other throttle sensitivity boosters that are out there on the market. Banks of course has taken that to another level. They have integrated a lot of different features into their throttle sensitivity controller that are unique in the market.

Now, this throttle sensitivity controller works as a stand-alone unit with a free downloadable app on iOS or Android devices. The versatility of this device offers you control directly from your smart phone or from your existing Derringer that has the Super Gauge or Data Monster.

So, let’s talk about what the Pedal Monster does. This is an OBD2 connected device. That means it is going to supply the voltages to your APPS for better throttle sensitivity. It is also going to bring in a few safety features and receive feedback from the ECM as to what is going on with your motor. It can then use that data to engage the built in safety features if necessary. That protects your truck and yourself as well. One of the safety features this has is a backup safety feature. So, when you put the truck into reverse, this is going to turn the Pedal Monster off. This means you won't get that increased throttle sensitivity while backing up a trailer. It also has an internal safety feature that allows for continued throttle control if you have something that happens to the circuit board while driving.

Now, let's talk about the nitty-gritty, the power levels! This device has 30 different power levels. It works in three different throttle sensitivity segments named City, Sport, and Track. Each segment includes 10 levels of adjustments which allows you to dial in the perfect amount of throttle for your driving style and needs.

This set up also has a feature called low-speed trim control. The feature is designed to keep you from burning up the tires or peeling out off the line. Wet roads, icy conditions and things of that nature have proven to be an issue with other throttle sensitivity boosters. The addition of the low-speed trim control makes it a really, really, really, nice coming off of idle and ensuring that the truck is not getting too squirrelly with you.

And finally, this leaves no footprint. So, on your newer vehicles, this is not going to leave a footprint in the ECM. You are not going to have problems with your dealership because of it. It is just a really, really nice unit that you can install on your truck with peace of mind and don't have to worry about anything, and it's going to work for you.

The Pedal Monster is out for most diesel applications as well as some gas applications. Just enter your year, make, and model above to see if your truck is available.
