I know this item is VERY controversial. That being said when car manufactures first went over the electronic F.I., most of the cars still had throttle cables. This made for fast wide open throttle. Basically it was a 1 to 1 reaction to how far and hard you hit the gas pedal. When vehicle manufactures when to computer controlled "drive by wire" pedals they built in delay. This especially on early drive by wire cars they needed that small delay to let the computers determine air / fuel inlet. Years later computers in cars have come a long way but most all drive by wire cars still have delay built into the throttle body. Yes its small maybe one tenth of a second but if it takes one tenth of a second to get to wide open throttle then the car reacts slower. If items like the Sprint booster cut that time and open the throttle blades 8/100's faster then your 0 to 60 time has to improve. Sprint booster almost gives you the 1 to 1 reaction "on the red race 9" setting that carb and throttle cable vehicles had in the past. Just my opinion and I know there is NO Horse Power gain with Sprint booster, that being said throttle response and car reaction is quicker. Today I like it. Maybe next week I won't.
