After a whole day of searching, I found out alot of info on the sprint booster from, out of all places, the benzworld forums. Well they have nothing but great things to say about it. Most of them got from here:

I had it on my E60, but I took it out, because it actually became too responsive for me. I can even do wheel spin on turns!! Its a very good mod, if your car is not responsive, and you get bad acceleration from standstill. Its great for people with smaller engines and bigger wheels, because the wheels will lag their car down, but the sprint booster will put it back to original feel. I'd recommend it to anyone actually, if they like to drive fast.
