Sprint booster throttle curve vs stock

anyone know exactly how much change the sprint booster will do?

I'm curious how it compares to say, a mini cooper with the sport button?

From what i've read it's a flat rate with the sprint booster, just trying to make sure it's not too aggressive

mega - if you do a search in this forum (the one it's moved to) for Sprint Booster, you'll find a plethora of posts.

Why was this moved to the N54 forum? I dont think this mod has anything to do with a N54

anyway I did find a technical paper

http://frontiernet.net/~dbipes/sprin...intBooster.pdf

the sprint booster amplifies the throttle pedal by 30 % which makes the last part of your pedal travel a dead zone that does nothing

I think I'll stick with stock

After reading this white paper, I don't see how Sporintbooster could help with my throttle lag problem. The symptom is:
get the car to 1500-2000 rpm in top gear and stomp on the throttle. One can just about count 'one thousand one' before the car starts to accelerate.
