FS: Sprint Booster Drive-by-Wire Enhancement Module
I have a used Sprint Booster Drive-by-Wire Enhancement Module for sale. It's been installed in a e82 135i for approx. a year and a half. It's a great enhancement for the turbo cars and takes it from almost no throttle delay to an instant on/off switch. It's almost hard to control in race mode, the car just squats down on the rear wheels and you hold on. HUGE difference if you have Dinan/other performance software. You can switch between stock, sport, and race settings, and it's kind of like having the OEM power or sport buttons from the E46/E9x M3's. How does it work? The Sprint Booster listens to the pedal input signal, and sends an improved signal to the ETC (electronic throttle control) which has been amplified or "boosted", so that the throttle is more responsive throughout the entire rpm range. When BMW began using the "Drive-by-wire" throttle system in 2001, a lot of people cringed. The Drive-by-wire system uses electronics to replace the mechanical cable throttle of the past. This means the electronics between the accelerator pedal and motorized throttle must interpret what your right foot does, and ultimately decides how the engine will respond. Although advanced in it's technology and engineering, many of us agree that the Drive-by-Wire equipped BMWs feel unresponsive and lack the crisp, sharp throttle response that older BMWs had with a traditional throttle cable. That's where the Sprint Booster comes in. The Sprint Booster is an in-line "plug and play" module, that remaps the Drive-by-Wire throttle curve to be much quicker than stock programming. It removes the "lag" or delay that exists in the stock electronic mapping. The result is sharper, quicker throttle response and immediate power delivery.   |
