In a nut shell, with the sprint booster you only need to "poke the throttle" 1/10th to get the engine to "jump to 3,000"... Maybe this will help explain... This is an example only !

Without the Sprint Booster you would have to push the throttle this distance to reach 3,000 RPM

IDLE >[--------------------------]< 3,000 RPM

With the Sprint Booster you would have to push the pedal this much to reach 3,000 RPM

IDLE >[------]< 3,000 RPM

Make sense ?
