Drive by wire?
I wanted to know what it means when you guys say the SS is driven by wire. When you floor the SS does it put you back in your seat or is it barely noticeable.

Drive By wire is just a lazy term for the throttle being electronically controlled by the computer... which is sent signals by the gas pedal.
Different method than cable driven throttlebodies.

And yes it does. Not like a GTO or a Vette, but it is noticable.

I don't think it's that noticable as the driver but when my wife drives and im the passanger i notice it a lot more. Im hoping when I get a 3" pulley i can feel it throw me back in my seat more.

yeah the dbw system makes it odd for the driver to feel , because we are used to the butt dyno pushing you in the seats
i notice the butt dyno more in my friends redline , then i ever did driving 1
