Yes! Being able to switch it off it's good thing, so that when others with a heavy foot drives your car, they won't get a shock if your car launch off like in a drag race.....kekeke

Wilson, thanx for chiming in and answering q's....
Seems you have a few possible customers here on e60.net...perhaps you would consider putting together some type of Group Buy price for those interested...
GL with sales...

If you read the review on one installed on an E90 320i, the reviewer said when he tested Levels 1 to 4, the results were as follows:-
Level 1: Similar to stock altho a tad better pick up
Level 2: Not much difference from Level 1 altho more torque at higher rpm
Level 3: Similar to the current Sprint Booster
Level 4: Higher revs..which is curiously similar to being in "S" mode
And he went on to say he felt that it was slower than his Sprint Booster.
His caveat was different engines might have different experiences..so will one of you guys get one and test it out? haha

Why don't you just 'copy & paste' his review rather than to do your own translated version??
"Velocity has a on/off button which is the SPORT button and the + & - Button for you to adjust to 4 levels.
Level 1, like No Feeling, but better than OFF pick up is there Feels like the original mapping but with better pick up.
Level 2, Not much differnt than level 1 except better mid torgue on 2nd and 3rd gear.
Level 3, Same a Sprint Booster (New Version) as i have that install recently to compare. Already quite crazy.
Level 4, Better low/mid torque and high speed rev does not want to come down at 4th gear, have to take foot off throtle to let rev down.
Different Level has Differnt mapping!
Also Different Model of cars( 520i 325i etc) will have different Experience!
Experience it yourself and get it install."
Your version of no.4 is so different from my friend's.

If you get the pricing closer to the Sprint booster and get some good reviews I'm sure you'll get more interest here. 
I must admit though I like the sleek look of the Pivot and it has more "steps" that I assume means more sensitivity levels, they should swap that LED display for LCD though.

It's like asking BMW dealers to sell you a 535 for the price of a 525.
Go buy the PIVOT or stick to Sprint Booster.

Is it me or is Wilson a bit condescending/arrogant?
Not the tone I would expect or appreciate from a vendor....

It's me.
I am a Vendor in Singapore, not here.
2 different products but others want the price to be the same SB vs Velocity?
As I've mentioned b4, I don't manufacture this product. I don't control the price.
Everybody here in Singapore pays this price.

Ridiculous.

I don't think it's a ridiculous suggestion I said 'closer' You could just say that's the best price you can do. A lot of people here have the SB and for them to want to swap for something else would probably require a lot of effort.
Just my 2cents...
As for the 535...don't think I haven't asked
