Yeah I was thinking, match the wheels/rockers/spoiler/etc with the grey would make it look like one other "NISMO" thing.

so say for example you are stepping on the gas linearly like this:
1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4v

the output from the sprint booster would be like 1, 1.75, 2.5, 3.25, 4v

At least you understand how it works. I remember looking at this product a long time ago because a few people were claiming it was the same as a tune (like with increased hp and everything). I was really interested, but then I got really

when I found out it was just upping the voltage input for the throttle. Looking back now, I think it would have done mostly what I wanted (minus a valet mode), but I was just too pissed off at these idiots to even consider the product. In the end, I'm better off where I am because I got my tune for just the cost of the license, which is about the cost of a used sprint booster ($175).

The stock throttle is mind-blowingly laggy whenever I drive Ms. Pint's 7AT

Guess it's time to go start the grill for dinner. Marinated chicken (I think it's a new lime-something marinade for my wife's diet), grilled asparagus (lightly basted in olive oil with just salt and pepper), and some roasted rosemary red (new) potatoes

Last night we did tacos. Usually we use the Taco Bell seasoning package (don't judge! it's delicious

), but she made a new seasoning from scratch for her diet. It had too much cumin, but it wasn't terrible. Hopefully we can tweak the recipe a bit and continue to use it in the future
