This Honestly Made Driving So Much More Enjoyable! Using City Mode for Best Experience
I recently sold my 1970 VW Bug (cable throttle), and bought a brand new manual 2019 Subaru Impreza Sport. I love it, but it's sluggish, especially when shifting from 1st to 2nd, it takes a second or three to feel the throttle, almost like it's not getting anywhere near enough gas, and sometimes even makes me want to downshift and then upshift much higher in the RPM range to compensate for the sluggish feeling. Stopping on a steep hill and getting into 1st is a chore, especially if not using E-brake. It makes general city driving especially boring.I almost returned this device before receiving it from watching reviews on youtube about a weird "limp mode" problem almost causing crashes, but decided I'd try it anyways. I installed it and tried all the features out, noticing a huge difference in all. It almost seemed like the sport and sport+ are waaay too much for this car. Like there's still a small rev delay with my car, so the extreme throttle sensitivity paired with the delay is not pleasant, but using the City mode, is perfect. It allows me to shift without ever feeling like I'm not getting enough gas. Totally fixes my main complaint with my car, and making it feel more like my 1970 VW Bug with that throttle cable feeling. It's made driving incredibly fun. I've been trying to find excuses to go drive around whenever I get the chance, with how big of a difference it's made. Turning the commander off to see the difference after using it for a while is hilarious. It's totally worth it.Caution: I tried the eco mode out of curiosity, and my car stalled at a left turn light. I think there's a problem with eco-mode and certain cars. I've stayed away from eco and sport modes, and only use City mode, and haven't had any issues for the almost 2 months I've had it. Feels amazing with both City and Freeway driving and only lost about 2-3 mpg on average. Never removing it :-)

Check engine came on.
Followed all instructions, still got a code p2122. Will update review based off their customer service support. So far not happy nor would I recommend it to anyone.Update: ended up returning the product, spent about $1,200 to get the car back in working order.

This thing is awesome. I have a 2.0 172 hp naturally aspirated 4 cylinder engine with a CVT. It makes the car so much more fun to drive. Your mpg will likely decrease relative to how much you use it and the particular setting. I describe it to people as having different 'gears' the car can operate in (especially since the CVT is essentially one gear). Given my car's cabin, I attached the square device at the bottom of the shifter and don't use the app.Great value overall. I highly recommend it if you want to make your grocery-getter or daily-commuter more fun to drive. It might not do as much for a high-performance engine+transmission combo and/or if you altered the throttle mapping already (via a tune).

BIG difference..
It does not give you "more" power.. BUT IT 10000000% gives you way way way more throttle response and makes driving the impreza much more enjoyable..

Your Subaru legacy will thank you.
Perfect! The lagging throttle response on my 2015 Subaru legacy is no more!! I believe this product will help with sluggish throttle response in any CVT transmission. Worth the money spent in my opinion.
