This is a complete flat pedal accelerator conversion kit. \u00a0The old throttle linkage design is outdated and needs an upgrade.\u00a0 The problem in the original design is, as the components start to wear, the accelerator control arm starts to bend out of shape, leading to unpredictable performance.\u00a0 Many have experienced problems due to this while they were driving.
\nNot something you want happening while you’re on the road!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The twin-lever action (the original “Box” design) of the X-Celerator “Speed Wheel” is laser cut, formed, and welded together, making a strong, stiff accelerator. This lever design is a vast improvement over the stock component. The X-Celerator lever rides on a CNC-machined, 303 stainless steel polished pivot pin. \u00a0This longer pin allows the twin levers in the action to ride on the same stable axis, providing\u00a0a smooth, effortless feel to the throttle pedal<\/strong>. \u00a0 The sense of confidence you gain at every acceleration may leave you wondering “Why did I wait so long?”<\/p>\n

This X-Celerator (Kit 1) INCLUDES a new cut-to-length accelerator cable ($14 value).\u00a0 It is a very good idea to replace your bug’s accelerator cable as part of your installation.<\/p>\n
