I don't doubt the effect it would have on the throttle response by having 4 settings. In my opinion a much better than an all or nothing approach of the sprintbooster.

However I seriously doubt the marketing lines below that I've seen elsewhere too.

Velocity utilizes proprietary, intelligent and self-learning feedback algorithm that monitors the car?s sensors and optimizing the injection mapping of the Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The unit then automatically calculates the fuel injection amount and timings required, according to the various power modes and altering the car?s response tremendously according to the desired selection.

I've been looking at the sprintboosters for a while now. I've come close to pulling the trigger a couple of times.

This is tempting.

I guess $420 shipped is better than the $465 that I saw in one of the threads. You guys might get more people to bite at a price point of $395, which is about $100 more than a new sprintbooster. If these things work as well as it seems like they might, you will probably get a lot more sales once more local people have them.

How does the interface unit mount to the dash? How long is the cable to the interface unit? What are the options in terms of placement.

Use double sided tape to mount to the dash.

One to One on manufacturer defect.
