I'd purchase this if it was available also!

I got the Sprint Booster installed on my C230 last week. It's incredible, the car does not hesitate anymore. You have had two Kleemanized cars and you have to question the purchase of a $250 mod that makes your throttle respond instantly? Just try it. $250 is alot less than the tens of thousands you gave to Kleeman. Send a PM to slkfans, he will ship it to your door in 3 or 4 days.

I think the money is not an issue for Josh or myself. There has been testimonials from you W203 guys but nothing from us W211 AMG guys. Not even sure if they make one for the E class. I think that is what we are inquiring about.

Thanks

E63 biturbo
I tried it on my CLS55 some time back and it was scary. U really got to be careful when you first step on the accelerator. Also I felt that the power died really early ( < 5000 rpm ) as the whole power band has effectively been shifted down, and didn't like it. Hence I took it off. However I've been told that Sprintbooster have taken note of this issue and come up with one specially for AMG cars. I have yet to try it out but apparently it works much better. Will keep u guys posted if I get it done anytime soon.

this is the installation instruction for sprint booster on a 01 cl600.
this is what it looks like:

imgp 1182 and imgp 1183 showed the gas paddle intact. you need to pop the round plug and remove the 10mm nut. you need to get the washer out with a magnet or a small tweezer. then just lift the whole assembly up and out.


imgp 1185 showed the gas paddle assembly out. note that the sprint booster is already installed.

imgp 1188 shows where you need to unplug and where sprint booster plugs into.

imgp 1193 shows the sprint booster installed. after this, just stuff every thing back and enjoy.

got my from slkfan. great service.

Yes the Sprint Booster has a generic part for all Mercedes, one for Automatic and one for Manual Transmissions.
