If you can afford rear tire set every 6 months, hell ya.
But, I'd not recommend it, and don't do it.

Can the Sprintbooster and a remapped ECU co-exist? Both affect the throttle response.
For sure!

What do you think, Fred? Can the Sprintbooster and a remapped ECU co-exist? Both affect the throttle response.
As Fred said, I would not do both either.
ECU remaps also enhance the throttle response - if there isn't a conflict with Sprintbooster (which I doubt) your basically paying the Sprintbooster for nothing...

He could resell it, as already said .

you guy forgot about 1 thing, changing the ECU remaps is illgel in most contry and in HK you will 100% get nicked by the cops and they can check it right away if you mod the engin
but on the other hand with Sprintbooster can not be detected and you will not get nicked.
For the installing the Sprintbooster, it is so easy just plug and play like a USB, no wireing, dring, moding parts. Clean and tidy cool.
