2.4L turbo, 2.5L

The Subaru Outback provides station wagon practicality combined with an off-road flavored ruggedness. Being the adventurer family man’s top choice, the Outback still has room for improvement. Get Pedal Commander® for your Subaru Outback and increase its performance by eliminating its throttle lag.

WHAT IS THROTTLE LAG?

The Subaru Outback runs a drive-by-wire throttle system, like virtually every vehicle built in the last two decades. There is no physical cable connecting your gas pedal to the engine anymore. Instead, the accelerator sends an electronic signal that travels through the throttle position sensor, the ECU, and finally the throttle body before the engine actually responds.

That chain of communication introduces a delay. Subaru also programs a conservative throttle map from the factory to smooth out responses for a broad range of drivers, meet EPA targets, and protect the CVT gearbox if the vehicle is equipped with one. This adds a layer of hesitation before engine output translates into actual acceleration. This is called throttle lag.

HOW DOES PEDAL COMMANDER® IMPROVE THE SUBARU OUTBACK?

The Pedal Commander® throttle response controller intercepts the signal between your gas pedal and the ECU, and recalibrates it with Outback-specific throttle mapping. It eliminates the factory throttle lag and replaces that sluggish feel with a direct and responsive connection between your input and the engine's output. You get four driving modes (Eco, City, Sport, and Sport+) and 36 total settings to match how you actually drive your Outback. You can dial in the throttle response from everyday commuting to off-roading on light trails, and anything in between.

Pedal Commander® fits all Subaru Outbacks from 2005 and up, covering every engine and trim in the lineup: the 2.5L and 3.0L naturally aspirated engines, the 3.6R flat-six, and the 2.4L turbocharged XT, Wilderness trims, etc. Every configuration 2005-and onwards gets the instant throttle response when upgraded with a Pedal Commander®.

WHY CHOOSE PEDAL COMMANDER®?

Here's what separates Pedal Commander® from the competition.

Most Advanced Internals: Pedal Commander® uses the most advanced microprocessor in any throttle response controller. That processing speed means your Outback's throttle signal gets remapped faster and more accurately than any competing unit can manage.
Wide Range of Customization: Four modes with nine sensitivity levels each give you 36 total throttle settings. From a smooth crawl through a rocky trail to a fast response on the interstate, there is a setting dialed in for it.
Fuel Savings with Eco Mode: Eco mode smooths out throttle delivery, and when combined with efficient driving habits, you can save up to 20% on fuel. On long overlanding trips or cross-state hauls, that adds up.
DIY Install: Pedal Commander® is fully plug-and-play with OEM-matched wiring plugs. No tools, no splicing, no permanent modifications. It installs in under ten minutes, leaves no ECU flags, and does not affect your Subaru warranty.
Easy-to-Use Interface: Adjust modes and sensitivity directly on the unit, or pair it with the free Pedal Commander® app to manage everything from your phone. The app also lets you activate the built-in Anti-Theft feature, which locks out the gas pedal when your Outback is parked and unattended.
Peace of Mind: Pedal Commander® is FCC, CARB, TÜV, CE, and ISO certified, 50-state legal, and a multiple-time SEMA award winner. Over 18,000 verified 5-star reviews from real drivers make it one of the most trusted plug-and-play upgrades on the market.

PRODUCT INSTALLATIONS

NOT YOUR VEHICLE?

If the video above does not show your specific application, don’t worry.

The basic steps of the Pedal Commander® installation are always the same regardless of the vehicle's make and model:

Turn off the ignition and wait 10-15 minutes with your driver's door open to allow your ECU to shut down.

Disconnect your accelerator pedal assembly plug, then plug in the heads to connectors on the Pedal Commander® harness.

Clean up the area where you want to mount the control unit with the alcohol wipe. Stick the bracket with the supplied velcro.

After you make sure the cables are secure and won't be tangled, you are ready to enjoy Pedal Commander®.

Bill S.

Definitely minimized the takeoff delay I hated. Running it in S+ and it feels much more mechanical than drive by wire.

Robert G.

Before: Driving in stop-and-go city traffic meant dealing with that annoying factory dead zone—stepping on the gas, waiting a beat for the car to realize I wanted to move, and then having to push deeper just to get a normal response. It felt sluggish and disconnected. After: Pedal Commander is the missing ingredient my car was needing. Now it's perfect. What a night and day difference. I use City+3, sometimes City+4, eh, and every so often, Sport+2. And then I just drive the car, enjoy... Installation was beyond easy, setting up the app was simpler than that. Worth every penny.

Jim mccrea m.

Works awesome. I will definitely purchase one more.

Just what the Outback needed. It is like it should have been right from the dealership. Don’t just keep looking and researching, go ahead and treat your ride and get one. You will not regret it.

Michael

Better than expected results….wouod recommend to anyone who is on the fence. You wont be disappointed

Scott H.

This is the second Pedal Comander that I've purchased. The first one was for my 05 Legacy GT Wagon with a Stage 2 race long block. That first Pedal Comander sinked up with no issues and I was pleasantly surprised with the snappy throttle response. This most recent purchase was one for my 21 Outback Turing XT and no suprize it to rocks. When spending $270.00 plus for a controller you want thing to work as advertised- theses DO!

Ronald P.

Hello future Pedal Commander purchasers. You will not be disappointed. No more lag in throttle response. Plus the bonus of better gas mileage. Still experimenting with all the additional setting. Very pleased with my purchase. Thanks, Pedal Commander.

David P.

The pedal commander really woke the 3.6 up. No more sluggish take offs . Much better response when you need to pass . Great addition.

Dave

Who knew the subaru woud come to life like it did . Great little addition . Made the 3.6 come alive

Daniel P.

The experience is great it makes the car respond the way it should have all along.

Jon S.

The commander is awesome works exactly as described highly recommend!

Scott C.

Subaru's somewhat anemic 2.5 liter boxer in my 2025 Outback really came to life when I put my Pedal Commander on "City". It wasn't a slam you back in your seat kind of change, but a manageable increase in acceleration that got me to speed more quickly. My mpg increased 8 mpg city right out of the box! Can't wait to see what it does on the highway!

Phil W.

High recommend for all vehicles !

james m.

Absolutely no hesitation anymore. Awesome, thank you

Ray M.

2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness After 5,000 miles I still liked the car, but hated the CVT and the way it drives, turbo lag, and the crappy transmission. Thank goodness for Pedal Commander, makes the car easier to drive, removes the hesitation and delay. When I push on the gas the car moves now, like it should. Pedal Commander saved me from buyers remorse. Very happy with this product. Highly recommended!

Wayne L.

Follow the instructions! easy to install and select the setting that works. Would definitely recommend.

It's Just amazing....now i don't want to stop driving my Subie

Suzy O.

Installation was super easy. Have been using it for a couple days, and am curious to see if it indeed increases my fuel efficiency.

Kave M.

Pro's: - Removed CVT shuttering w/ Subi Outback Wilderness. - Improved responsiveness at speed. - Easy to install. Less than 10 minutes. Con's: - Didn't add any more responsiveness from a full stop. May be due to turbo winding up. - No difference from default City to +4 Sport +. Overall: - The removal of CVT shuttering and responsiveness at speed is well worth it. CVT shuttering is not a good thing for longevity. If you need to pass on 2 lane roads, this will make it quicker. This device doesn't do an engine tune, it just adjusts the throttle voltages, which is something that should be a dealer option.

BRYCE L.

It’s game changer. It won’t affect the warranty and plug and play.

Donald H.

We love our 2016 Subaru Outback, but the throttle initially comes on too fast on our 3.6L engine. You have to be very gentle on the pedal when you initially accelerate. Saw a blog about Pedal Commander and decided to give it a try. I've had it for a few weeks and I can't believe the difference in throttle response at different settings. The change from Econ to Sport is really amazing. This fixed one of the few complaints with the car.

Andrew P.

The Pedal Commander is superior to the Sport and Sport# that Subaru puts in some of their cars. I ordered a second one to awaken my 2007 Tacoma. I can’t wait to get it. My turbo charged Outback was a disappointment when I leased it a year ago. I was sorry I got it for another 2 years BUT the pedal commander now makes it enjoyable to drive.

Kent J.

My 22 Subaru outback touring xt 2.5 suffers greatly from to much turbo lag to the extreme of dashing away from a dead stop no matter how much I try and get a happy medium it's impossible pedal commander had alleviated alleviated 85-90% of that issue... I have my device set in economy mode and my take offs and such are MUCH MORE TAME I'm very glad I heard about the pedal commander!

Roy B.

A few week ago I purchased a 2022 Outback Wilderness w/Turbo. I felt that the transmission was constantly jerking around, mainly when accelerating from a stop or slow speed. I put the Pedal Commander in and took a short test drive........OMG! Now I really love my Outback! I only tried City1 and was astounded at the difference. Amazing that the vehicle does not come from the factory with a built in device like this. If you have a newer Outback, don't even hesitate for a moment, BUY ONE NOW! What a difference! Roy in Raleigh, NC

James O.

Definitely improves acceleration on my 2022 Subaru Outback Onyx XT.

John H.

Installed on my '22 Subaru Outback Wilderness with 2.4L turbo. Car was already good, but I felt an immediate performance boost using 0 and +1 settings in City and Sport modes. More responsive, smoother, quicker with improved MPG. Adds some fun to driving. Installation was straightforward, fast. Bluetooth connected with no hassle. Very happy with the Peddle Commander!

Keith W.

Noticed a Great improvement right away ! Really woke my Bubu up ! Now just a little fine tuning !

Troy H.

The Pedal Commander gives the user the opportunity to customize the throttle response of his vehicle and for people like me who are unhappy with how their car drives, this is a Godsend. One of the most irritating things about my new car's throttle by wire is a dead flat lag shortly off the line, one that kills performance so bad you have to hit passing gear to get the car moving. Pedal Commander has opened up that box and allowed me to virtually tune out this flat spot which makes the car much easier to drive. Would it be better if the car manufacturer tuned the throttle better or even offered a knob so the driver could choose his car's operating attitude? Yes, it would. In lieu of that happening this little device does a wonderful job and I'm thankful I tried it out. Pedal Commander has been on top of communication and their help is only an email or phone call away, though the unit is so easy to install and use I doubt many will need the assistance. My only suggestion to PC would be to offer up a visual chart with graphs that represent what each mode on the unit does. Show us visually how each mode looks as compared to the other modes. This would make it easier to see how the unit is designed to work and would help the user to find a starting point when installing the unit as well as what direction his next setting change should be.

Allan D.

I had to get this for my 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness. It did not do much initially, but I sent an email to reprogram the unit to make it a lot more aggressive. Within less than 24 hours they sent me an update via bluetooth using the Pedal Commander App and this updated my actual unit. The reprogramming made a lot of difference. I’m only using Sport (0) and it’s more than enough for the Wilderness. I’m happy with the result. Awesome customer service too! I highly recommend them!
