Thanks!

you know what, i haven't tried that yet. The green setting has been so satisfactory i just kind of leave it there almost all the time. I guess i will have to play with it in S mode and sport mode to see the difference.

Does the Sprint Booster do anything to the fuel consumption? What is this wire hanging and the little red light? Is it easy to install?

I thought you would consume more fuel with the SB! But you are saving fuel instead, interesting!

yes when normal driving I don't have to put my foot down and just lightly touch it.
I save fuel on my last e60 too with SB v1.
I think it all down to the person, if they are light or heavy footed
