3/4 Throttle is just an urban legend. Don't worry about it if you don't notice it. :-)

Default naw, i really have it

well, the lag, that is. cheng noticed it as well when i drove the car with him in it. there's this very noticeable hesitation before the car starts to move... *shrug* he suggested doing the 3/4 mod but before i did it, i just wanted to make sure that this lag i have is really the symptom for a 3/4 throttle mod.

Default Yep, you need the 3/4 Throttle Mod. Come to A-One on Saturday or we can meet up somewhere...

APR v3.3 eliminates the need for 3/4 mod.
