Depends on which one you use more, the gas pedal or your stereo. GL with your decision...
Also, do you like to drive fast? If so then definitely get the SB...

I don't get all this SB hype. Do all of you have fused ankles that prohibit you from quickly stomping on the gas pedal? The only thing i can think of that would make it actually usefull is if it bumped up the voltage to the servo to alow the actuator open faster then currently possible even if you Sebian Glover. But still $300 is a lot of dougth for 0 net horsepower increase. Has anyone drag strip tested it for 60' time improvements?

It enhances the driving experience via increase throttle response...
See if there is a local member near you with one that's willing to let you test it out, either in your e60 or in theirs...
