any more update on the pedalbox? I have one locally I can grab for $150 CAD (approx $100 USD now). worth it?

Still running mine daily, my personal sweetspot is right on sport mode without tweaking it up or down.

What ive noticed when i am messing with cars is it definetly does give you great advantage cause your pedal is so much more responsive when your on it or on/off gas like in and then out of a corner, it gives great advantage cause even when they other person gets on it, their response nowhere near the same.

The more threads i read all over the net the more i sense the same train of thought.
Throttle is more sensitive.
I know this device will not add more "power" to the car therefore make it accelerate faster but it gives a sensation of doing something faster as the throttle is more sensitive.
My 850 had sensitive throttle from the factory and there so many complaints to BMW they made a Sensitive Throttle chip and it reduces the on/off feeling you got with the gas pedal. I bought the chip and it was nice but you feel like you loose a bit of sportiness when you have a less sensitive throttle (neck snap not as big) feeling. Hence why i bought another set of chips that give even more sensitive throttle and more power apparently. Definitely a sportier feel if nothing else.
These Wokke chips are famous in the e31/32 world.
I'm assuming this PB does the same thing and makes the throttle more sensitive where it feels of an instant reaction by engine instead of slowly getting to its point...
Can someone with a PB confirm if I'm correct (or if you can even see my logic)?

Between I am OK with how it is and the cost, I never made the purchase.

k, so i bought and installed it. its a nice option to play with for sure. for$140CAD I didn't think it would be too bad if I didn't like it, and I could always resell it at that price anyhow

K just an update about the PedalBox... I have to say it's convenient when I wear different shoes. Some of my shoes have thicker soles than others so my driving can be faster acceleration than other times when I wear skinny sole shows, so to fix that this pedalbox adjusts the accel curve depending on the mode I select. Overall it's not worth the money but I've also spent $140 on wayyyyyyyy worse things (like just gambling).
