If that says throttle box then it just merely increase your throttle response over your factory setting, these units do not produce any hp or tq gains. A bunch of us N/A and a few FI guys run them on our Z's with great results. Visit Sprint Booster's web site if you want to understand more how it works.

I know about sprint boosters. since were on the topic. if i used a sprint booster and then got a ecutech tune with both the tune and the booster would i even get better throttle response. apposed to just the tune?

If you're getting a tune. Why waste your money on a sprint booster? You can map your throttle response with the tune.

Generally once you're tuned you shouldn't need a throttle booster such as sprint booster. However, that also depends on who your tuner is. A local guy here with a 40th had an uprev tune but his tuner "forgot" to update the throttle map. He ended up picking a up a sprint booster to run in conjunction with up rev.

Never had one, so I can't comment. If someone does, hopefully they have dyno numbers to go with it. Good or bad.
