For whatever its worth, I highly suggest not getting a sprint booster if you live in a state that gets a lot of snow. Its a damn nightmare in the winter not being able to slowly accel because your throttle response is at max.

- For manual gearboxes
- For automatic gearboxes

I don't know what could happen but I wouldn't risk it.

Anzafin, I figured something has to be different for them to make two models.
I will take your advice, thanks!
