Re: New Throttle Boost Sprint Booster
Just got mine installed yesterday on my SRT6.
Quick review:
First impression, couldn't feel much difference between all settings, that was the first impression.
Then I put the car in 3rd gear and just drove it gently stabbing the throttle. There was a definite difference between off and Green. I tried Red and there is a noticeable "snap" when you blip the throttle. That was yesterday afternoon!
Today, I had the opportunity to play with it some more. Definitely crisper acceleration AND shifting in the Red mode. On full throttle kick down there is still a slight delay, but just touching the throttle brings immediate acceleration. Acceleration from a stop "seems" stronger with no need to hold the brake and rev the engine to 1000-1500 RPM. Wheelspin actually feels better controlled.
Staying within the speed limit, there is a nice wide road through and industrial area with few cars, I took it for a "road test". A new 370Z pulled up along side at a stop sign and I was able to leap ahead (and pull away) from the stop sign.
I know it supposedly does nothing more than make the throttle more responsive, but like so many others have stated, it sure makes it feel faster.
Woody, yours has been ordered, you should get it by mid-week. Can't wait to hear your opinion.
Thanks,
Karl
