Edit:
Okay so here's a quick guide of installing the Sprint Booster on my 370Z:
Step 1: Leave your door open a few minutes prior to working. I was told doing this will ensure you don't trigger a check engine light after you remove the throttle cable from the pedal. I did this and did not have any CEL

Step 1b: Remove the plastic cover at the base of the gas pedal exposing two 10mm bolts securing the pedal to the floorboard. I used a small flat head to pry the plastic cover out. Once the two bolts are removed, hold at the base and push the whole pedal assembly inward and slides up to lift the pedal assembly out.

Step 2: Carefully unlatch the throttle cable from the pedal.

Step 3: Throttle cable removed from pedal. Becareful not to pull on these wires.

Step 4: Install the Sprint Booster unit on top of the pedal assembly. It only goes in one way. And make sure it is latched tight. Notice my switch is already connected to the Sprint Booster.

Step 5: Throttle cable is latched to the Sprint Booster unit. Again, make sure you have a tight connection here.

Step 6: I routed the switch behind the carpet and up through the steering column. Used a small piece of 3M double sided tape and placed the switch here for easy access, you can place it anywhere you want.

Also, I watched this video beforehand to get an idea of the install. There are some differences but the steps should be the same.

Brief review after a short drive:
I went straight to Red mode and I was very surprised how quickly the RPM jumped through the gears. It was an immediate throttle response. The car felt so much lighter and more responsive than it ever had. Coming out of a complete stop, I no longer feel like the car is bogged down and trying to get up to speed. Rowing through the gears also felt much smoother. Over all, this one simple gadget gave me an enjoyable feeling that no other mod I have done could match (intake, exhaust, tp). It really made the car comes alive! I am stoke for the drive to work tomorrow morning. I can't wait!

Is there any way to make these pictures bigger? They're tiny!

Good call! Much easier to figure out the install when I can see the pics. The whole install looks super easy!

Is it any more 'difficult' to drive on a daily basis on aggressive mode?

Once you get used to the increased sensitivity I am pretty sure it will be fine.I drove around this evening with it set to red led on and had no issues .I routed the switch so I can switch fairly easy between the different modes.

Best $300 you ever spent on your Z, I promise you. You're going to wonder why you didn't get it sooner.

TexasChuck · 10-09-2015, 05:43 PM

I just hope it's delivered when my wife is at work. I've always hated that lag. Even took the car back to the dealer about it.
