Thanks for your feedback guys. Anyone happen to know the difference ( pros and cons ) between the 2. Do you just remove it before go in for service ? Thanks again.

The SB has disconnecting programming/controller wire so I leave it for service but you can take ten minutes and remove it; unless they go looking for it they'll never know or care it's there
pedal commander has more than the three sensitivity options ... has about fifteen

I recently looked into it at length and couldn’t find any difference beyond the controller or the number of settings. The SB has a smaller controller. I doubt anyone would find the number of settings a problem with either. Ultimately I decided to put the money towards a tune instead.

a tune won't do what a $250 SB will do
apples and oranges is right; the SB doesn't give you better 0-60, 60ft, or 1/4 mike ... it's about better stoplight to stoplight driveabiity
after countless threads on this very discussion it always comes down to -- just try it and return it if you don't like it

The SB and pedal command are to help with the lag from a dead stop whereas the tune is when that lag drops and the car launch from there.

In a few different threads I came across owners of SB or PC that found them unnecessary after a tune and were selling them. I did find the odd one who kept it after getting a tune. My understanding is that most tunes can adjust the throttle response (which is all these things are doing anyway). I guess my suggestion would be if you ultimately want a tune, get that first and if that’s not enough on its own, get the SB or PC in addition. If you have no plans for a tune or see that way down the road, get a SB or PC as an economical way to get more response.
As someone pointed out, both offer a money back return policy that makes it pretty easy.
