Sprint booster

Hi there, have you guys ever heard about "Sprint Booster". Any side effect? Any good or bad effects? Thanks.

it's not a gimmick, rather more like a gadget. it works by changing the response
curve of the throttle algorithm. you can save the cost of investment merely
by pressing down more on the accelerator pedal. fuel mileage will suffer when
using the sprint booster, just as if you were mashing on the gas pedal.

the glamor of the SB is that simply by pressing slightly on the pedal, it translates
and magnifies the throttle response electronically. you gain no horsepower,
torque, or drop in ET vs stock setup. but you do gain hit on your wallet.

advantage? hmm, less of a workout on your right foot

simple search of the forums will give you broader response
