I’ll tell YOU it burns like fother mucker
It is always good to have a first-hand account, rather than hearsay or conjecture. I'll add this to my list of metaphors, or for when I don't want to search for a synecdoche.

and do YOU like it enough to keep it? I still want it to be able to adjust
*I* like it aplenty. I have had a convo with their USA shop about the fit, however. I have to send them.pictures - was the outcome. Just to add to the frustration, on the way back from the office - thankfully, in the parking lot - it went into some bizarre 'in-between' state, when it won't respond to the pedal inputs, but instead kept the RPMs bouncing around 2000.

I attribute that to incomplete engagement of the connectors. But, this WILL be discussed with the seller.

How wonky is the connection?

It's supposed to be straight up - they said they use OEM connectors for the marque. Just a male plug with about 7 or 8 pins.

Perhaps they sent me the wrong part, or a defective one, or ...

Thank YOU for being the guinea pig [emoji883]
Edit: I know. It’s a squirrel
Wasn't my plan. But, when it worked it was byuteefool. I am wondering if any of the popular tunes - Stratified, etc. - take care of it. Cobb"s OTA obviously doesn't (come to think of it - I wonder why).

I had both the linear and the bonkers throttle from Stratified. I know how I want it to be and it’s not an either or thing. I want this product
