As far as I can tell, SprintBooster (and all other plug-in "pedal enhancers") don't do anything you can't do with your foot. But the bottom line is: does it enhance the driver's experience. OP seems to like it so, for him, it was a good deal. Other people may prefer to just push on the pedal a little harder. To each their own.

Pardon my ignorance about tuning a vehicle. Is it possible to change the way you want to drive let's say on the way to the gym and all of a sudden now you have this open road with lots of curves etc...and you go from Mr. Rogers to Dominic Toretto. What do you need to do in a "tuned" vehicle?... All I did today was switch from one number on a control pad to another. In a tuned vehicle, would I have had to stop and pull out my laptop?...I'm serious with this question as I just did a Youtube research and I'm momentarily disoriented.. and BTW again I had fun today, almost like coming back home from the Philipines and remarrying my ex-wife (that's another story, but I'm buying the engagement ring tomorrow)

With an Ecutek tune, one of the Race Rom features is adjustable throttle response. It can be done through the Ecutek dongle and the Ecutek app you can download on your cell phone.

It can be done at a traffic light, the same as I had to do with my sprint booster.

OP: The point that redondoaveb and others are trying to make is that, for a little more money than what a pedal booster module costs, you can get a tune and get the same effect as the booster plus much, much more. More HP/tq, greater efficiency, etc.
IIRC, you can have more than one throttle pedal response curve/table and can select from them using the steering wheel controls without taking your eyes off the road. If you are happy with your booster, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.

I didn't have faith in them and I wasn't sure what they would do or what I wanted them to do. YouTube had a few videos on the booster so I went with that mod. So on that note I'm glad to belong to this site |

You can get an e-tune from a knowledgeable tuner wherever you are in the world.

He tuned my car multiple times (when I made mod changes) and has been great each time. It seems that you just called the wrong tuner. |
