Anyone have any thoughts on the difference performance on the banks versus the pedal Commander? I just installed the AFE momentum air intake today and would like to remove the lag on throttle response. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Banks is well thought out and would be my personal choice. It has built in safeties so that if something goes wrong everything remains functional. They put a ton of effort into their products.

I’ve read up on both, but do not have one. If I did buy, I’d go Banks.

I bought the PC many years ago. Main reason was I had a 50% off coupon for some reason I don’t remember. No complaints! Bronco definitely scoots around. Can’t go wrong with either, IMHO.

A couple of years ago I called Banks and asked if their Pedal Monster would help with the throttle lag in my Bronco. They told me the Pedal Monster modifies the signal going into the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) and I'd still have throttle lag. The Pedal Monster just changes how much throttle you need to apply, not how quickly the engine responds.

The throttle lag occurs in the PCM. No throttle controller, whether it's the Pedal Monster or the Pedal Commander changes the PCM programming. If you want to get rid of throttle lag, figure out how to reprogram the PCM.
