    I'd be sceptical of anything that claims to boost BOTH fuel economy and power/torque/acceleration.

    It promises crisper shifts, which is odd, as nothing EVER shifts in the Prius transmission.

    It will make your wallet lighter.

    John, nothing to see here... Time to set your sights on something more functional.

    If you want a more responsive throttle, look up "throttle controller".

    Brands like Apexi, Weapon R, and Blitz, etc should come up.
