It has $20 worth of parts, maybe $25 for the described nonlinear function. Chrysler could have programmed the ECU to do the same thing without the amp.
I like to think that I have programmed my foot to do the same thing.
By the way, how many times have you posted on the SB? This is about my fifth time against, just because of the cost.

I don't care if the parts are worth 10 cents. The difference it makes for the manual shift is worth it. The lag in the stock set up is noticeble. For push and go guys with automatics, maybe it's fine. But for manual shifts, I miss the quick response to my foot inputs. Pushing harder, or faster or sooner doesn't compensate for the lag. The stock throttle feels "soft" It should feel quick and bright.
Chrysler or Diamler could have fixed it in the ECU but they didn't. The sprint booster does. Period.
Because of the cost, and because of the ragging the SB got on this forum, I put it way down my list. Having driven several cars with the SB, I now say it should have been my first mod.
