Is this only for 5ers or will it work on 6ers too? When would one go to buy SB?

fits all BMW's with fly by wire tech.
just tell them your model and if auto/manual when ordering.
flea bay is the best, loads on ebay.co.uk

enjoy.

Works for ALL BMW's.

You can buy it from Andy Wong. Sales@partsexporter.com

Just make sure you tell him what car you have and what transmission you have.

are you worried about the long term effects of chainging your tyres also??
its the same thing, there are no bad effects...short or long term, its not "changing" things...its mearly making them faster

if you change gear (manual) slowley...its like changing gear very quickly

thats all it does, it enhances the experiance.
as said on here loads of times just try a mates car that has it fitted...its the only way to be sure.
thanks for the info... looks like i'll be ordering mine soon

I need one too. I'm guessing that you need to order direct from Sprintbooster. Or, do the vendors (EuroRev, Trinity) carry these?
