I told myself that I wasn't going to add to the hype. So, I'll just have to share a quick not on my sprint booster experience.

5 minutes to install. The rest was history! WHOA!

This one's not coming off my car. Thanks to everyone that shared this, much appreciated.
see once you touch it you will never live with out it
good that you love it.

nice, might want to take it off before you take it in for service
My dealer foreman loved it and said that BMW should've made the car respond like that from the factory. I'm sure not all dealerships would probably feel the same way about it.

Note: On the plugs, there's a slight curve on one side that needs to be aligned with the curve part of the receptor plug you're snapping it into. Also, our cars don't have a hole in the carpet mentioned in the instructions above so you'll have to just tuck it to the side.

On my 09 there seems to be minimal lag or no lag time at all, do you guys still think it would be beneficial to install a SB?
