LOL That was a hit for me too. Another wtf moment. I'd like to live the day and see cops running around with geek gadgets stopping cars in traffic and doing scientific tests

All right, I've had the Sprintbooster on for two days now. Everything isn't rosy. I thought that it would help me achieve a faster timed run. I attempted to use my Launch Control (LC) last night but it didn't work. The LC was just working last week. I'm certain the Sprintbooster is the culprit, but I'm not too bummed about it. Doing timed runs these days are few and far inbetween. The next issue is parking. You have to really be careful or else you can end up hitting another car, curb, or pole. The throttle is crazy sensitive. Overall, I love the Sprintbooster and the immediate delivery of power.

C, get it. There is more positives than negatives with the Sprintbooster.

A necessity for having the Sprint Booster (S
is clarity of mind. Fortunately, the SB is an easy install. If you know you're going to drink just remove it. Removing and installing is 5 minutes max. Seriously, you got to be careful with the SB.
