The Sprint Booster is basically a Throttle Enhancing product. It goes inline of your pedal and throttle body connection on Drive By Wire vehicles. It enhances the signal to allow the computer to more accurately regulate throttle input. It gives a much more aggressive feel and eliminates nearly all the lag associated with DBW setups.
Ths product will not give you any HP gains. Theoretically, although not tested, it should improve 0-60 times due to quicker throttle response.
Basically it makes the car more enjoyable to drive day to day. For street driving it is great. For competitive racing, especially autoX or road race it is a PITA.
I hope this helps.

I have some really bad news. The distributor contacted me this morning and found out the price I was offering for these and will not allow it. Basically I will have no product to send out as they are the main distributor. We sold the two in stock, but will try to work something out to make this work. I'll have an answer in two days.
