**SOLD**

I bought this a few months ago and only selling it because I traded in my MINI for a different car. I had this installed on a 2012 Mini Cooper S Countryman (MT) and I have to say that the sprint booster is a MUST HAVE! It comes with everything you would get new with the exception of the instructions. This is a 5 minute or less install. You remove the one screw holding the gas pedal and remove the pedal, unplug pedal, plug this in between the car and the pedal, reinstall the pedal. Here are the instructions online.

Info on the Sprint Booster"

Designed specifically to enhance acceleration in a number of popular platforms, the Sprint Booster is an aftermarket electronic module that plugs in between the accelerator pedal and the engine control unit (ECU) in vehicles equipped with an electronic throttle control. Sprint Booster is an application-specific hardware based product designed specifically for your car. This device is engineered to improve acceleration on drive by-wire cars by continuously measuring and converting the digital signal providing the ECM (Electronic Control Module) with a new and altered signal. Many modern vehicles utilize electronic throttle control and more vehicles are going that way, especially performance and sports cars. In conventional throttle systems, the accelerator pedal is connected to the throttle by a cable. In electronic throttle control systems, the accelerator pedal is connected to a sensor that sends a signal to the ECU that operates the throttle. The ECU increases or decreases throttle effort based on your accelerator pedal input, however this doesn't always translate to instant response. Things like pedal sensitivity, stability control and traction control systems can vary on different vehicles and can also lead to larger lag in throttle response and acceleration when its go-time. Sprint Booster improves response, increases pedal input sensitivity and delivers more impressive off the line performance. This product does not alter fuel or ignition in your vehicle; it's a simple plug-n-play mod that delivers instant response throughout the power band, making accelerating and revs matching incredibly more fun.

 

Manual or auto? V2? 200 including shipping?

 

1. This is for a manual transmission.
2. I'm not sure how to answer your v2 question since there are no v numbers on the box or booster (other than A1 20171280). This is the same SKU (SBMI0001S) currently being offered on sprintboosterusa.com for $300
3. I'd take $215 shipped ( I ship within 24 hours of payment and I'll send it USPS priority mail with tracking). I have $300 in it and I'd like to get $200 after fees and shipping. It still has the manufacturer 2+ years of warranty left.

 

Best bang for the buck for sure. I sold mine recently and regret it.
This is for a n18 motor I take it.
V2 is version 2 which has the 3 way switching for 3 modes.

 

I loved it. It really made a huge difference in how my mini drove.

Their site lists it based on model/year and not by engine. Says it's good for 01-12 Cooper, Clubman, R50,52,53,55,56

It does have the three modes (off/eco green/racing red), so it is v2.

 

Is it still available?

 

Hello,

Yes, this is still available. If your interested in purchasing it please post that you'll take it and I will PM you payment details.

I will update the post to indicate it's sold once payment has been received.

Thanks!

 

When his sells, I've got a 2nd version that I'll sell for the same amount as is being asked above... Not trying to undercut or steal a sale. Just wanting to help out someone who desires a Sprint Booster. Mine is currently in an '05 R53 6 speed.

PM me if you've got an interest. Thanks.

 

I would like to purchase either or 200 including the cost of shipping PM me you Paypal.

 

"It really made a huge difference in how my mini drove".

Bought 2nd hand... here at NAM.

 

I've had one for several years, and it's rally a nice addition that improves the acceleration and reduces the lag when you stomp on the gas. But just to clarify, the green mode is really not "Eco"... It is a mid level with a throttle curve that is better than stock, but not as sensitive or "twitchy" as the max red mode. I keep it on green 99% of the time when driving. Plus the throttle curves are different when the car is in Sport mode. Highly recommended.
