I have to let go of my sprint booster to make way for some other mods. Price is $240 shipped anywhere in the continental USA. Will ship as soon as payment is received on my paypal. Let me know if you have any questions at all.

Good luck with the sale. But are you sure??? Take it off first and see how it will be without it.

basically it makes the gas pedal more responsive to the touch like M mode does to most Bmw's, the throttle response is quicker..
