My bro-in-law has a 08 550 (same as mine except color). He drove my car this past weekend w/ SB, and he was actually giggling like a little school girl. If that doesn't say it all, then nothing will.

just got mine this morning. and just installed when i got back from school and went for a drive. recommend it for anyone that has smg, the shifts are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much smoother. i love how the car is so much more responsive my car is!
Just installed mines from the group buy with Andy Wong, gotta say, it was pretty easy to install, took less than 5 minutes and so far, I'm very pleased so far, and that's in a 30 zone in my area...can't wait to really test it!!!

Hi, I'm new to this forum, but has been tracking the SB livelydiscussion. Am planning to get it but was told that there's another product TuneKit Powerpedal which is more expensive but allows 'calibration' to suit one's sensitivity with the pedal. Any one with experience with TuneKit. (www.tunekit.com). thanks.

Update - drove my bro in laws '08 550 before SB install, I can't believe how pedestrian it felt. Installed SB and woohoo. let the fun begin. I just don't get what you guys are waiting for. Best mod for the money. hands down.
