Sprint Booster Install

Hi guys,ive just installed my Sprint Booster on my manual Limited.The model unit is SBDD 451 which is correct.Ive installed it on the gas pedal following the instructions.However when i start the engine theres no response from the throttle pedal.The green and red lights come on so the connections there.When i disconnect and put the factory connectors together its working perfectly.Dont tell me it fits in the engine bay?!Or is it faulty?Any ideas guys thanks!!

Re: Sprint Booster Install

I would recheck all the connections just to verify they are pushed in all the way. If they are I would start to lean towards a issue with the device itself.

Re: Sprint Booster Install

It was simple guys,i had one end of the connector plugged in the wrong way round.The pins are numbered on the sprint booster but on the oem plug there not.Just a simple thing like that,lesson learned!!

Re: Sprint Booster Install

Its working well in green mode but the red is impossible to use on a manual car from a standing start.The difference in acceleration and pull is great and feels like a different car.As far as mpg there doesnt seem any ill effect on my wallet!!
