how much does the sprint booster cut from the 0-60 mph on a limited (non-srt6).

 

I don't know if it does at all someone on here did runs at a track and it was pretty much the same. I have mine and it feels like 2 seconds off no joke its night and day. THERE is not added hp from this mod it's more of a seat of the pants feeling. I might be selling mine if I end up getting this ecu in the next couple of weeks.

 

... i know that it doesn't add hp... but it doesn't need to increase 0-60...

so... has anyone clocked their 0-60? the non-srt6 is said to be 6.5 for 0-60.

also do you spin out a lot with the sprint booster?

 

Let me just say, it requires some getting used to... I have never run my car in a drag race, nor do I have times for the quarter mile, but I can say it definitely increased my track times by a couple of tenths...

 

Why would you get rid of it as a result of the ecu purchase? Is there a tech conflict?

 

wouldn't just flooring the pedal give you the same results for 0-60 times? no?

 

yes, it would.

 

no it wouldn't because if you floor it you can get a few 1/10's lag, but with SB you will not get that lag so you will start moving faster with no wait.

 

I'm supposed to be going to the drag strip in a few weeks. If I do I'll post my times with the sprint booster, and without.

 

Ok, i am going to install mine today. I'll get my friend to stopwatch it.

 

I'm interested in your results. Thanks!

 

If you are going to do a true with and without Sprint Booster test... make sure you reset the learning accelerator pedal BEFORE each run.

To be fair, this is the real reason for the 'lag' without the Sprint Booster. The system learns your habits and starts to anticipate them. When they don't conform (smashing your foot to the floor) it gives a lag time for you to correct the 'mistake'. Call it what you will, this is a safety feature for the average driver when you have a light vehicle with this much horsepower.

On the SRT6, it still catches me by suprise if I try a bit of a jack rabbit start.

 

Ugh. I forgot to reset my throttle. But anyway. I did see an improvement in my time. Then timing wasn't very accurate since we were on the street (don’t worry it was abandoned near the airport, didn't see another car the whole time). Well anyway. My friend was timing with a stop-watch, but I still think it was a little off. I made 3 runs pre-SB. My times ranged from 6.85 - 7. Then after i installed i was getting around 8.7 - 8.9. It’s really not meant to increase your 0-60 because you only get the lag for a split second anyway, but it felt way better riding around town. Worth every penny.

 

1- The Sprint Booster does not add HP, IT DOES eliminate throttle lag which in turn gives you quicker acceleration.
2- There are no ECU tunes I am aware of (and I have the SI) that will correct throttle lag.
3- Drag race??? I don't think you will do very well in 1/4 mile drag races, just my .02

 

In answer to the original poster's question: 0.00 seconds. All Sprint Booster does is alter the signal going to the DBW throttle. It forces the vehicle to open the throttle sooner than it would have done on its own. Simply placing the gas pedal on the floor will achieve the same result, but it does seem like it has its uses for part-throttle acceleration. Personally, I just downshift.

 

yes but when you floor it, the throttle won't open up right away because of the lag. but without that lag it would open sooner, giving you more gas sooner, reaching 60 mph faster.

 

Derek, I do believe that you will win a lot more races by "decreasing" your track times, rather than increasing them.
