Next should be the Sprint Booster as it makes all your performance mods work better!

Yes, I was looking into the spintbooster... I hear nothing but good things. I am worried though that in the long run it might cause some damage. anyone have any insight on this. What exactly is it that the sprintbooster does to the electronics to make the pedal so responsive???
