The problem

A quick sedan with a cautious pedal

The Virtus has a capable turbo engine, but its factory pedal mapping is gentle. There is a pause between pressing the accelerator and the car pulling, most noticeable from low speed and in traffic.

Windbooster GT shortens that pause by reshaping the pedal signal. The engine and its tune are left exactly as Volkswagen made them.

Most owners fit it themselves in about 15 minutes with our installation guide, or a trained partner can fit it for you.
