Sprint Booster
Do we even need Sprint Boosters once we have tunes like Procede or JB3?
Or are SprintBooster worth it, if you don't have a tune?

BAD BAD idea to mix a sprint booster with PROcede or a JB3. It would drive erratic at best

Does it actually improve throttle response over what the procede has?

I thought the sprint booster was awesome with v3 but it is a bit to much for v4 since it is already so smooth. I ended up selling mine when v4 was released

For the people that used the sprint booster on the N54 engine, what differences did you notice?

naw, thats a waste of money trust me, especially if u have a tune. With a tune ur throttle response already is already a little touchy ,the sprint booster would just make the throttle response more annoying in everyday driving

I love my Srprint Booster. Dont knock it till you try it. Why do you think the M cars have a sport button and M engineers didnt just say "the people can push the pedal harder". The Sprint Booster does the same thing. Try out a car that has one.

I'm curious too. Anyone in the NYC area have one that I can test out? I'll also let you guys drive my car so you can feel the v4.
