I think what gaveup is trying to say here .... and i quote Jack Nickolson is .... "YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH !" lol! Seriously this car is a fun toy. This little gadget is a fun toy.This car is meant to look cool in and have fun driving, not to have berated opinions thrown at it or anyone who drives one! For half the price of a gtr leave negative opinions aside, you could pick this car apart and all the mods that are offered forever.

this is quite a self-loathing board, huh? Im gonna make a thread called "The Positive Things" since it seems almost every thread is negative in one way or another.

I installed my Sprint Booster two weeks ago. It works great! There definitely is a faster throttle response. My suggestion is . . . don't bash this add on until you have tried it. I'm 100% satisfied. Only thing is....Those other 2 choices (settings) other than the fastest which is Red. When I set it on Red I never went back to any of the other settings! :driving:

Yep! Red is the best setting :tup: Although, during the winter I had to put it on green, it was just too twitchy and sensitive.

I won't comment about this product but will make a interesting observation.

Last month while I was on vacation in the US, rented many slow a** cars like prius, 2.5 altima cvt and 4cyl chevy cruze. I found myself flooring these cars whenever possible and driving very aggressively, doing one wheel burnout in every corner and power breaking to 3k rpm in the red lights; one part because they are rental, yes but also because my driving habit dramatically changed due to a much slower car.

When I got back home and drove my Z, It helped me realized that I was driving like a grandma, slow in the corners, soft on the pedal and the throttle never got past half. What I try to explain here is that most of us here don't always push our cars to the limit and get used to just half of the power of the Z.

As for me, I've learnt a very important lesson, and it feels like having a sprint booster implant in my right foot...

Now the throttle lag is a very different "issue".

I figured with the 30 day money back guarantee I should try it. I definitely does what it says. I know I could have done the same with a tune but do not have anyone in my city so this works for now.
It is expensive but I don't have a sports car because I save money. And the red is where it will stay.

I could have not said it better . . . myself . . :tiphat:

No Expense Is Too Much If It Improves Z Performance.

But it doesn't improve performance - just (perhaps) improves "throttle feel". So wouldn't it be better to get a tune and actually improve performance and throttle feel? Or some intake/exhaust upgrades?
