sprint booster

I'm thinking about investing in a sprint booster for my 07 mcs. Does anyone have one installed, do they make a difference, and is it worth it. Thanks for your input.

I like the added sensitivity of throttle movement, many do not.
It does not add any hp, just amplifies throttle position. (eg. 10% = 20%)
or is it (10% = 25%!!!) Does that make any sense to you? Its been a busy day!

Great thing is Sprint Booster if bought new comes with a 30 day money back policy. If buying used, get the V2, it comes with a switch giving three modes..(off, sport, race).
I used to turn it on and off often but now I generally have it set in sport mode. Lately, I have been running in race mode more and more, again, just makes throttle response more sensitive to peddle movement.
Although I have a R53, I've read the same reactions to SprintBoosters from the Gen2 Brotherhood!
