Ghettobird: Thanks and I will make them an offer


Ohlord: From what I found out from the w211 forums this is a pretty good upgrade. The w221 is large and heavy and any throttle response increase will help the car out alot.


I will report back after I purcahse it and test it a little.

Update: I just install the Sprint Booster, took me 15mins. I know if I had to do it again it would only take 5 mins. I took the car out for a drive right after the install and drove it for 30 mins. My review so far is the SB is great. Throttle feels so much better, the car wants to get up and run right when I press the pedal. The car feels like it's faster but I know it's just the throttle opening up alot faster. I would recommend this upgrade.

sb question

Isnt the feeling just like flooring it, rather than giving it 1/2 gas?
I was wondering if you would lose the ability to accelerate slowly, after this mod is added.
