Hi

Saw this advertised at Design 911. Just wondered whether anyone had bought one and could share their experience.

Here is the link: http://www.design911.co.uk/fu/pt697...96-TURBO-2000-05/Electronic-Throttle-Booster/

Thanks

Thats the old style sprint booster there is a newer one that have many more options on it. I had one like the one in the link on my 997.1 I loved it as it genuinely speeded up the throttle response giving the effect of a sport button. They are great for Tip cars but less noticeable on a manual car . the tip box is naturally quite a lazy box especially if you drive in town a lot as it learns a lazy style this can be overcome with a kick down but it quickly gets lazy again the SB keeps it more alert it may well do no more that pushing harder and quicker on the pedal but whatever it does work in the same way as you could argue that a pdk box cant do any quicker gear changes that you could manually but you would be exhausted after a couple of mins driving like that and the same theory applies to the sprint boost. it gives a heavy hard foot drive without actually having to drive like that and knacker yourself lol.
