If it worked so well why only used one week?

As I wrote in the post, it didn't work well with the Manic tune. The tune modified the throttle response (I wasn't aware) in the ECU, so adding the Sprint Booster added an amplifier on top of the already accelerated throttle response in the ECU

So if I plan on getting a Manic tune, are you saying the sprint booster is not needed?
I was thinking Manic tunes would conflict with JB+, and this is a first im hearing about the SB's not working well with Manic. What stage tune do you have, I heard SB's work fine with Stage 1 so im confused.

I got the manic tune first. When I later plugged in the SB my throttle got non linear. I found a thread (which I can't find now) that talked about this. It said the Manic tune modified the throttle response in the ECU, so adding the SB to modify the throttle response prior to the signal getting to the ECU just confuses things.
