I think the SB is more of a cheap band-aid fix. And it doesn't really fix the lag unless you reset the throttle every other trip, the manual version is way too sensitive to use on the street. Just spend the money on the EC upgrade from SI.
I have emailed the guy's at SI and they tell me if I send my ECU to be remapped I should leave the Sprint Booster installed. Second I may have been the second Sprint Booster installed and it Does fix the lag and I have NEVER since had to reset my computer.
This is what the Sprint Booster does,
It absolutely corrects throttle lag, Period. In the case of the manual version very aggressively.
This is what the Sprint Booster doesn't do.
It does NOT add HP, Period.
Is it a band-aid? Well that depends on what you want, That's the question to ask yourself. SI adds HP and the SB corrects dive by wire throttle lag so you want your Crossfire to do... what? Maybe both, it would be nice is the SI remap did both but also remember some people don't need or want more HP and the SB is a tested product that works beautifully as advertised.
My $0.02.
