I believe there is a distributor that sells them on ebay. There is an AMG one and a non-AMG one. You can use either. Using the non-AMG one on our AMGs make the throttle response very aggressive!

I guess it's a matter of personal preference. The AMG one will sharpen the response you already have and the non-AMG one will sharpen it even more. BTW - your red C55 looks amazing! Very unique!

I feel like the responces is very lazy
so guess I will get the non amg model.
Is there any side effect with the non amg model?

I was thinking of a sprintbooster the other day too. With 350ish whp i still get the feeling sometimes like the car is slow or not shifting into the right gear. I wish the transmission just would know i drive like a mad man alot. It would be cool if there was some TCU programs for the C55 IMo it needs it. A problem I have is with ESP too IF i jump on it at 20-30mph ESP with cut power because of wheel spin, Maybe its time for an LSD. IDK Sometime the C55 has a mind of its own.

I disagreed !!! The AMG is a much better version. I used the AMG version on my Clk 430, CL55 and Clk 500. I didn't like the non-AMG version on any on my cars. The non-AMG version is way too aggresive for me.

There is another thread running on this somewhere,, I answered on it yesterday.
On a UK forum we got a bulk buy discount for 100 sprint boosters. 99 were very happy with them, and only 1 sold it on.
Though this does not change the power output, it does feel a very different car when fitted as it changes the curve of the accelerator pedal, making the car feel quicker for very little throttle movement.
Its a nice" must have" for what they cost

What about running a Sprintbooster with a ECU Tune?
I am thinking about getting a tune through LET and am wondering if the Sprintbooster is even needed after a tune?
Let me know.
Thanks
