approx how much did that run you? I'm thinkin about doin it cause I hate how sluggish off the line my car is. My and my buddy in his 03/04 SVT 5-door Focus went all out [he has off-road pipe, intake, engine mount, etc]. He so took me from the line. pretty sh*tty feelin knowin that my car is still essentially faster. but damn.
anyways yeah, whats the $? is it bad to buy em used?

Sprint Booster - Still going strong?
How is everyone's Sprint Booster doing? When I first installed the SB it was awesome but a bit to sensitive...then after a month or so it hit the sweet spot...I learned how to manage the SB plus it became a little bit less sensitive...but after a while I feel less and less of a difference. Maybe I just got accustomed to it....
Is there anyway to reset it without having to fully disconnect it?
The SB to me is still a good mod!

Mine is still running strong. I still notice it, because the car down-shifts a gear when I press down about 1/4 of the way on the accelerator. I remember without it I have to press about halfway to do so. But you are right about being less sensitive because we adjusted the way we drive.
You can't reset Sprint Booster. Just reset the ECU on your car. I'm sure you know how.

I hate that freaking 1 second lag. Wouldn't re-flashing the ECU with a delete code for work just as well, if not better with extra power?
