Instead of getting the sprint booster, why not just save your money and push on the gas pedal more?

It's unbearable with manual transmission.

I had the SB with the JB and I instantly did not like it. The car was so jumpy, that it would buck in a manual
SB has 3 settings 0-1-2
with the Sports button, it adds even more settings or combinations
I'm glad I tried the SB, so I'm not curious any more. The SB was not fore me.

i have the D1 spec (same thing as a SB), and a JB+ and the car feels fantastic.

the car finally has the power it should without the brutal pedal lag....

also, anyone who say "simply press the pedal harder" as never used a SB/D1 spec........because youd know itd no where near the same effect.....it completely changes the feel of the car.
