OK, don't roast me yet but I just ordered the new adjustable sprint booster from Bavaria Auto. I've been a big anti-sprint booster guy since i joined the forum, but you guys and gals are too convincing. I have to try it, and with the new one being adjustable, I had to go for it.
Review won't come until the spring when I un-ass my car from the garage and get it on the road again.
We'll see once and for all what all the hub bub is about.

Looks nice and you can mount the switch up high. I may jump on this and if I like it sell my original SB.

Its funny you started this thread because mine just arrived yesterday...v2 from Brav auto got 15 percent off on it not bad. I tons of people here have them so i did my research went for the new version. I think you are going to like it. Here is my take on it.
Package Arrives
Contents of the box
Installed (The only problem was that there was no where to hide the thing because the hole where the oem wire goes into was too small. So i hid it behind the pedal housing for now. Going to make a small slit in the carpet where the oem wire comes out and slide the housing in there) MAKE SURE YOU WAIT 5 MINUTES WITH THE DOOR OPEN BEFORE INSTALLING TO AVOID CHECK ENGINE LIGHT MESSAGE!!!!!!
Threaded the wire behind the paneling
Mounted the button (pretty indiscreet right there i may move it its easy access there though
Turned it on and was good to go!!! Honestly you can really notice the difference. 3 modes, off (no light), green (medium setting) red (aggressive). The difference between the green and the red setting is not super noticeable but from being off then on wow what a difference. She just gets up and goes!!! I guess the one downfall of this thing is that it does bring your mpg down considerably but who cares it feels great. Last night i went flying down Griffith Park Blvd mad late no cars around to test her out in DS WOW thats wild its a little overkill in DS mode pretty much just hits 6000 rpm as soon as u step on the gas. I love this thing.
