For the cost of the sprint booster, you're well on the way to paying for a tune. Get the tune. It comes with other nifty stuff, as well as more power. Intakes can also improve throttle response. If you're going to get a tune, get any other mods you may want before the tune so you don't have to do it twice.

I'm not going to get into the pulley debate here. Many people experience good results. There is also the potential for serious issues. Do your research on that one.
Well said.

With sprint booster it amplifies the signal like stated. And what that means is that when you put your foot down 20% is outputting some higher number, lets just say 35%. That said, you'll get to a certain point where there's no difference between the position you're in, say 80% and the floor. Having the sprint booster is just like putting your foot down harder. Just try the tune first before you spend another $200 or whatever a sprint booster runs. I personally don't know anyone running a tune AND a sprint booster, but if there is someone please chime in.
