Hey Mike,

Not sure if it makes any difference in the electronics, but my car's listed as a 2009 C63 when it' should be 2010.

Oh yeah I saw that last night and I forgot, It doesn't make any difference but I'll fix it!

And for you thread lurkers, there's still room for more since a few appear to be MIA!

Gentlemen,

I will live up to my word, and Sprintboosters will be shipped out to me by tomorrow hopefully, and should arrive Friday, or Monday. I will then send them out and hopefully they'll arrive right on time for Christmas. Those of you who still wish to make a payment and get one, you have until tonight to make it, otherwise, only those in the thread marked as "PAID FOR" are getting theirs.

Thank you.

Alrighty people! Great news! All Sprintboosters shipped out today. You would not believe the madness that this was at the post office! I was there for a solid hour + !!! Anyway, California orders should arrive tomorrow or Thursday. Other domestic orders will arrive Saturday or MAYBE Monday. Sorry, I couldn't get them out sooner for you guys

International orders, 6 to 10 days.

Please post up in this thread your experiences before and after and throw some pics of the install for all to see! I can't wait to see how you guys like it!

Thanks again!

I totally forgot about the instructions. I actually thought they were gonna come with the units themselves. Here is the install instructions in a PDF file for the W204. It's similar for all other cars. Basically it plugs in line with the gas pedal harness. I'll take pics of my install for the W211 crowd as well.

Alright I have just shot an install video for the sprintbooster on W211's. I have to edit the video but my computer is about to be upgraded to Windows 7, so bare with me!

I'll tell you how to do it real quick:

1) On top of the gas pedal unit, there is a plastic circle/tab. Pop it up with a flat head screw driver. It reveals a single 10mm nut.

2) Unbolt it and the entire gas pedal assembly comes loose.

3) Pull it out all the way, unplug the harness at the top, plug in the Sprintbooster in line, tuck it inside the top opening underneath the dash. Make sure you do not bend the pins. You can't plug it int he wrong way as the ends of the harness are not identical.

4) Put the gas pedal assembly back to its original position, bolt down the nut, and you're set!

Now go drive and enjoy!

It is the same procedure for the W203 (At least the 2005 c230). Here are some pictures of my install the other day.

That's exactly the same! Thank for taking the photos! The Sprintbooster did exactly what I was expecting it to do. It's such a pleasure to drive the car now! You press the gas pedal and off it goes instantaneously! I love it!

Installed mine tonight and took it out for a spin. Let's just say I'm very impressed with the throttle response! I need to feather the gas even more now! This truly makes the car feel more alive.

I'm a little surprised at how much I like this overpriced piece of plastic. I'm fully aware of what it does and doesn't do...nonetheless I was looking forward to experiencing what it actually does do to the overall feel of the C63. I figured there was at least a 50% chance that I would send it back for a refund but I am keeping it in the car. Simply put, the car is more fun to drive with the Sprintbooster installed. There is no debating this issue...this is simply MHO, take it or leave it...'nuff said.
