Can anyone with a "Modified" SRT actually confirm if their Sprint Booster has actually done much to improve their SRT's response? More fun to drive? I realize it may not be as noticible on some of our more modified cars.
I bought a Selectable programming Sprint Booster for my SRT and received the wrong booster to witch the company argued with me that it was the correct one for the SRT and to re-install it.
Well I installed it again and after breaking off one of the tiny little clips that these type of plug-ins have they refused to allow its return, even though they had sent the Sprint Booster for a standard Crossfire. They treated me very poorly.
It has been sitting on the shelf since that frustrating day on the phone with Sprint Boosters.
I guess I will sell this one (at a great price since its never been used) and if you guys say it's worth it I guess I may,buy another. This time insisting it fits the SRT.
Thank you for any input,
Mike

 

yea, but what about the broken tab ?

anywhoo, what do you consider to be a great price ?

 

If you know what I am referring to by the little tab you'll know that they are just that little clip you can never reach when you want to
I have sold a lot of parts here and ebay and I assure you I have never screwed anyone and the "tabs" are not in anyway something that would affect the operation.
Why don't you throw me a price?
They are retailing for $329.00
Private message me.

I am still waiting to hear from someone with on an SRT.

 

being that the Sprint booster, increases the voltage to the gas petal. I'll explain that in a minute, but yes on the street regular driving. It's a blast. Even with my V8, it was fun.

It increases the voltage, so when you press the gas pedal 25% of its movement,,The increased voltage will signal the throttle body to 50%. And that goes all the way up to about 90 if you press it 90% you automatically get hundred percent. If you press it 75%, you'll get about 95%. So on the street at 10%, 15% of the gas petal. You're getting 30 to 40% reading on the gas pedal to the throttle body, so your car takes off faster ( on the track it wide open throttle. It does not)
I had one when my car was a v6. I had one when my car was a v8 the only reason I sold it is because with the V-8, you have to disconnect it to run on the dyno.. So I took it off. One time I just left it off and then sold it I hope this information helps you,,, Jim

 

Makes a difference here. Before my wife understood how the SB worked, I would use the red setting when autoXing, and if I forgot to switch it off, or back to the green setting, my wife would ask me why the Car was acting up. "Tweeky" she says, lol. It's kind of like a trigger job on a gun; crisper,quicker,smoother,less travel to the bang.

 

again, that's on the street, and yes it does work very good on the street. jim

 

Jim, I was responding to the OP's #1 post. And I agree w/ all you mentioned in your previous post. Although, it works great on the track also. I don't know about the drag strip, because I haven't done that yet. Perhaps the SB is overly responsive at the strip to get a controlled spin free launch?

 

with street tires. You're probably right. Being that I don't race with street tires. I want wide open throttle the minute I launch the and with that the Sprint booster does not do anything for me . jim

 

Sorry Mike, I love Jim to death, but I disagree. I had a slight pause when I mashed the throttle before as I don't always bring up the rpms when drag racing. Depends on the track prep. If she is sticky, then I will bring the throttle up to 1500-1800 rpms brake torquing, which means the SB isn't really helping much. But, on a track which is not prep'd as well, I will just put her to floor and go without brake torquing. Definitely worth it to me for the street. No lag at all...no hesitation, but my last one on the blue coupe is much touchier than the roadster's. I don't have selectable one's because I want to go fast all the time...lol...

 

Thanks for the input.
I guess I need to place this thing in the classified section...
Mike

 

why not just send it to me ,,I;ll test it as i never had the Selectable type if there is something to it that I like. Tell me what you want for it and I'll let you know if I will buy it, I understand clip that you're talking about that holds it together that is broke that is no problem. On top of everything else I could make a report on the select type with a V8 and see what results we get, jim

 

...about the only thing I do know about the Sprint Booster is that if you do not have the co-insiding ECU you get NOTHING.
Just as the results for the standard Crossfire Booster in an SRT model.

 

It's pretty depressing how non-responsive the throttle is on the SRT and that you need to buy something to adjust it. On my old Volvo S60R you could adjust suspension from inside the car (comfort, sport, advanced) and advanced greatly increased the throttle response as well. Has anybody driven an IS350? This is exactly how our throttle should have came stock.

 

I kind of agree with you being the SRT had several items falling short of technologies available. The lack of rack and pinion steering being the biggest mistake but you are speaking of a Volvo you know.
Mike

 

Since we are all talking about throttle response here; When (if ever) do you think we might see Woody's Dual TB setup? Wonder if Rob is working on bringing this to market?

 

What size throttle bodies is he installing?

 

Shame on me!

 

Hope you realize I was just joking about the Volvo.

I'm pretty sure he's added another OEM, but he would have to confirm that.
