Get it Alex. It's worth it. The throttle response is amazing. I'm going to do another timed run tomorrow after work.

+1 if VT likes it, then I must join the bandwagon. Didnt ECF make a GB on the Sprintbooster on m5 board? Is it still available?

This is an awkward turn of events. So...is it just a gimmick, a wizardry that fiddles with the accelerator sensitivity or is it not? Cuz i don't see how it can get more power, and most important more power to the wheels, case in which the car should not be any faster just feel faster.

As i remember it works smth like this: instead of pressing the throttle half way in standard conditions with the sprintbooster you only have to press it 3/4 of the same travel (to the half) to get the same result.

This happens when someone brings in LEGAL issues about a name.

A friend has it on his MB E400 CDI : I will try his MB and if I will like it I will make the order .
Vegas, can you try also in Drive mode ? Maybe with sprintbooster the kickdown changes too .

Is this suitable for E60 ?
The site says E39 ...

Otherwise, where can I buy it in EU or US ?
Tnx!

this Sprintbooster will not give you more power in the engine, but it will make you car faster in time wise, every mil sec counts when racing
less delay on throttle, faster on start.
