Sprint Booster

Hi,
Has anyone on here bought or fitted one?
Our company have just started importing them to the UK and are after some feedback. They have been available in the US fo ra while.

Any info would be much appreciated.

voted "must have" by the Crossfire forum, what does that tell you?

regardless, they don't offer any Mazda applications so it's a moot point

Seems it just tells the computer that your foot is heavier than it should be, causing faster 'takeoffs'.....

Pushing your foot down faster is free, but if you can part the fool and his money then why not ...

pretty dumb to install a device that simply makes the PCM think the pedal is farther down than it really is. save your money and press the gas pedal on your own. ridiculous

sounds like an exponential curve... similar to what RC uses, ironically to deaden an area of the stick. If I read correctly there's something about our ECU that pretty much negates it regardless.

Can you please POST in relevant Thread, do a SEARCH and then Post in that Thread about YOUR Issue, not just copy and post in any thread you can find..

OR better still Start a new THREAD of your own, on your issue/subject....thanks
