Just picked up a sprint booster from a member, thanks by the way (5er Sport)...
I know it doesn't add Horsepower, but man does the car feel different. Off the line response is night and day and low speed response is way more perkier!! Didn't go on the freeway yet so we'll see how it is tomorrow. This a a must for any E60

It will work on yours, doesn't void warranty, can be attached or detatched in about 1 minute and you can make it not noticeable so the dealer doesn't even know if you take it in for servicing.

It sure does Joe. Just make sure you order the automatic version for the SMG. They make a manual version, but you don't want that. Buy it from Andy Wong. You'll have it in 3 days. He's the best!

Just get it... period.
If you have an automatic trans get the one for auto trans.
If you have a manual.. get the one for a manual trans.
It's plug and play.
And you WILL notice a difference.
No more lag when you hit the gas.

May take a few minutes to get used to it. Just drive with a Light Foot

and yes.. it's worth every penny.
