Sprint Booster V3

Surprised that no one with a GC has ordered the Sprint Booster. Just ordered the V3 and going to say bye bye to lag time!

Interesting. I hate the lag in my car, the worst part about it. How was this to install? Is the control module wired? I read the site but didn't see if it was wired. I don't really want something stuck with 2-sided tape to my dash. Where did you put the controller?

Control module is wired but you can set it and remove the control unit leaving only the pedal module connected.

I had it on my bmw 650i e63. Was peeling out tires at a stop light, but it was on the most aggressive setting. Just ordered the v3. Should be in by monday. It will def. kill the turbo lag. I have a jb4 and catless downpipe to accomadate to it. Will keep you updated.

Hmm, very interested in this as I too despise the turbo lag. OTOH, it gives me the "excuse" to put it in Sports +, slide the shifter to manual and keep the engine in the fat part of the torque curve.
