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

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 ?
This was my experience exactly with the 6-speed.

The effect of the sprint booster on the crossfire with a manual transmission is no different that 1/4 throttle devices. The lag is only perceived because your foot has to travel farther to achieve the same amount of throttle without the SB.

I'm sure the effect is totally different for an automatic.
