Sprint Booster review for 370z 7 speed AT

elmz · 05-12-2011, 11:37 AM

Well you do know that multiple people here have bought the SB and are happy with the results, I being one. And to call them a moron is not the best way of getting your point across. I'm not a complete idiot and I understand the point you are trying to make. But the SB has its benefits.

And this is coming from a former 350Z owner. This "lag" was the first thing I noticed on the test drive. After installing the SB, it has made the car more responsive, which I am much happier with, and can honestly say it has made the car more fun to drive. Which was something I missed in my 350. But with that said, the throttle doesn't respond like it did in the 350, it's "different" in which I can't explain really...but I'm a happy SB owner.

If you don't like it, you don't have to buy it. No one here is forcing you to buy it. The purpose of this thread is to provide personal reviews, which others can use make an educated purchase.

See that's the problem I have with this, not once did I call anyone who bought this item a moron. Please refer to the part of my post you are talking about:

"Everyone in this thread that thinks the Sprint Booster is some magical fix for the "throttle lag" being described on the 370z is a moron or doesn't actually KNOW what this throttle lag is."

Now, had I had just came out and said "Everyone who likes this product is a moron", then yes, that would be grounds for people to get salty and reply like they have.

I would think the proper way to educate potential buyers about this product is to flat out tell them what this mod does. Not say it fixes lag or delay, because when most people on here (that read the tech forums at least) hear those words, they think of the delay from the ECU due to whatever is causing it (as mentioned in the thread I posted earlier).

I guess it would have been easier to just say this mod only helps make the DBW feel a little bit more responsive.

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.
