you got the link already Dave...just click on the "buy now" button
Yeah, I am still not sure about shelling out $300 for this. I can think of better things to spend it on.

I do need some black floor mats to replace my beige ones, though.

I've seen Sprint Booster on Ebay Germany for 209?.
Is this the same as the thing eveybody is talkin about?

I wonder why you could get it here for 210? and in the states for 300?! I mean the EURO is strong ,but that strong?

Bye,
Ivano

What effect does the sprint booster have on the warranty of the car. I have a CPO 2006 550i manual and would hate to lose my warranty over this mod.

thx

Most people just leave it in when they bring in their car for service. I always remove mine before bringing it in it's really easy to install/remove so it's go big deal

Wow, what a ride. It's like a new toy, the car simply jumps when the pedal is pressed. Lot's of fun driving today, 160 miles and averaged 53mph and 22mpg with 50/50 highway and city. I pushed it a lot harder than normal and still got great mileage over all, I usually average 23mpg.

Only losing 1MPG is pretty damn impressive
