I just purchased this and used it for a total of two days. I hadn't taken into account the snow/ice season coming up so I've decided to sell this for now and reconsider one later once spring rolls around.

Product #BDD401A

$240 via paypal to anyone in the US. Will ship immediately.

Increases the throttle response/decreases the lag time when you depress the gas pedal (NO HP gains, just reacts better)

Wouldn't it make sense to just keep it till spring

Then you won't lose money on the deal.

Must admit, I've just taken mine off while the weathers bad... the roads are pretty crappy and icey at the moment, and with all the torque on the 535d the DTC light is on permanently

But rest assured it will be going straight back on come spring.

If I were employed at the moment I would just keep it, but it's the holidays and all.

Sale is currently pending to nicewithit
SOLD!

Thanks for all the inquiries.

So I'm the one who picked up the Sprint Booster. I slapped it in as soon as I got home from work and love it. I've always felt like for the power this car had it didnt accelerate well on the low end without having to really gas it. So it was either accelerate mildly or gas it to where it downshifts and then youre flying, no in between. Now the car goes when I want it to and it feels right.

Just thought I would share.

Thanks to sedition for the quick shipping. Bought it during lunch on tuesday and received after lunch wednesday haha
