Same car two different times. The SB allows you to have fast acceleration so faster time.
Thanks for your additional comment. I do not see how anyone can logically figure that if you increase throttle response and have faster acceleration, that you would not also have faster times. Of course, once you get to WOT there would be no difference, but it would make sense that if you get there faster...you are faster.
And, downunder...you still have the same top end to keep on going. As an ex-weekend drag racer, I understand gearing very well, but throttle lag in these cars is still going to be there without the sprint booster. Now, if you do both...holy crap, batman!!!
