Sprint Booster group buy
Hey guys, anyone interested in the sprint booster here? It works well from everyone I have spoken to. For those who don't know what it is, the product is a small computer module that you swap with the factory item. It basically changes the way signals are sent to the computer when you put your foot down. It helps throttle response to be much more "crisp" so there is less lag from the moment you put your foot down to the engine responding to it. For those who have owned or driven an M3 before, this is the same as when you use the sports setting. It just sharpens up the throttle response. It's a cheap mod that enhances the driving experience.

no there won't be cel with this. As for rr downpipe, no point doing it unless the chip you are getting supports it. Otherwise it's not going to yield you too much

regarding the CEL, check out e60forum. for most people the install is goes smooth. but some people do have issues if they install the unit backwards or if a pin is bent on the unit. but taking it off and correcting the issue (unbending the pin or installing it correctly)makes all the lights go away.

You have an electronic throttle, and as such it sends a signal via a variable resitance to the throttle body. The booster modifies the signal to be more sensitive. In E39 cars it stops the lag you get when you stop at lights and go to take off, it's very common in benzes when you go to take off, you push the pedal and nothing happens, this booster fixes that.
