A supercharger does not address the throttle lag issue. IMHO, throttle lag is a significant safety issue. When I press the accelerator and there is a significant lag before the engine responds, that is dangerous. Can someone explain why we have to accept throttle lag as the norm? I would gladly return to a mechanical linkage on the accelerator.

A throttle lag eliminator is not snake oil. It really works. I have one on my Porsche and my 2021 Q5 and my son has one on his Hemi Challenger. My brother has several high performance rides and has been using them for years. They really do work and there is no downside other than cost ($270 for a Pedal Commander on sale).
