Default Re: Sprint Booster - A "Must-have"!

Just installed this unit - bought from a board member recently.

I gotta say... I'm not really impressed.

It basically makes it feel like the 1/4 throttle mechanisms they make for motorcycles - Where it only takes 1/4 turn to be wide open. The Crossfire now has the same effect... pressing down on the accellerator only 2-3 inches has the same effect that flooring it used to. And there's nothing left beyond that first 2-3".

It'd be hard for me to judge if it's truly quickened the throttle response... at this point, it just seems like the pedal travel has been shortened electronically. Of course, this would be a benefit at the drag strip, but for day-to-day driving, I can't say this is a must-have item.

I'm going to drive it for a week or so to get used to it and then take it back out. I'll be able to better judge its worthiness then. If I don't miss having it, I'll put it back up for sale.
