it's too bad you didn't do a pre-mod and post-mod 1/4 mile time to compare the difference. i grow weary when someone says it "feels" faster. case in point, church and his "it feels like +50 hp!" when in actuality was -30 hp

It could just be mentality and psychological thing playing tricks on your mind.

"Oh I just spend money on this to help improve performance, so therefore, it MUST be faster"

really it works..a before and after would be a good idea.. its just a plug in into the computer...my acceleration is better and at cruise speed on the hwy i noticed that the throttle is not down as far as im use to..they said they just got this product..go try one.. im sure they would let you plug in and try it.. they offered it to me...

i wont bash ya.. its sprint booster...basically as it was explained to me ..its send a signal to the injectors to add more gas that the throttle requested...therefore better perfomance..

Hey Rayzee,

What it actually does is increase the response time (delay) between the drive by wire throttle pedal to the actuall electronic throttle body from aprox, .45 (or almost half a second) to .1 seconds. This in turn makes the car feel like the good ol days of a cable to the throttle body. One of the easiest fixes for a laggy response was to tighten the screw on the cable to get rid of the slack, think of it just like that but electronically now a days. Nice to here some good comments once in a while. it does nothing with fuel or ignition, just response witch makes accelerating, and rev matching incredibly more fun.
P.S I do work for JRP
