Hey guys, I really want to get a sprintbooster, and as cheap as they may be (compared to other mods) money is really tight right now, but if I really like it I'm wiling to pay for it.

Is there anyone in L.A with a SB that would work with an E55 that would be willing to meet up with me so I can try it out in my car? I'd only want to try it out for like 5 minutes, I'll probably know right away if I want it or not.

Please let me know, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks

Anyone?

I know West Covina mercedes dealer carry that. They give you 100% money back guarantee. They will install it for you over there. You should go there and get one, you got nothing to loose.

how much do they charge?
100% money back including labor??

That's interesting... I haven't heard of anyone in California giving 100% money back on electronic parts that have been installed.

Anyone have any personal experience with any down sides of Sprintboosters?

Here is what he sent me, hope this information helps.

Or you could get my one that's on eBay for a fraction of that

Here it is

Its not going to make the car any faster but it will make light footed individuals think their car is faster

I had it in both of my cars... I had the original version.. NON AMG.

Basically it was more aggressive that the AMG version.

The AMG version was released later.

Basically MPG sucks... you will be driving in C mode most of the time and S mode is way to aggressive around town.

I removed it and sold it.

Now with my current set up, its just about as good as having sprint booster in S and C mode.

BTW: LET tuning runs just a few hundred more than $375 West covina charges for the Sprint Booster.

They can flash your car with a lap top. If you are So Cal.. Code3performance can do it for you.

I drove to Camarillo for my tuning and dyno session and it was set up by Code3 and LET (wayne and Jerry)

Hey W211 Beast,

I have a SB that you can try it (it's the AMG one), but I'm located in Irvine. When I come back from school I'm a little closer to LA, but prob won't go back soon, maybe 3 weeks?

Let me know man

That sounds awesome bro... I wont be getting it until June anyways (after my LSAT). I would really appreciate it if I could try it out. Ever since I've signed on to this board I've been hearing that the SB is the best bang for the buck mod. I know it doesnt help performance, but I heard it makes driving more enjoyable which is all I need.

Let me know when you're coming into town, I really do appreciate it man.

Sounds good man, it'll probably be either 2 or 3 weeks from now after my midterm, lol

PM me with a way I can contact you and we can def meet up and let you try this thing out, haha
