Hi all,

I got mine a week ago and found to have made a difference. I have a JK 3.8l. Obviously, it would have made a bigger difference if the engine was properly tuned...(just out of the 10k service and it is running like a dog, one wonders who actually works on our cars!!!)...
Anyway, have a flashpaq on order, so maybe I can iron out the flatspots and get a bit more guts and better all-round performance.

If it makes a difference, it is never a waste of money..
best to all

It is A$419 at ozadventure4x4 so 185 quid is more than 25% cheaper than here! It is US$330 from the sprintboostersales in the US so if it is the same thing then 185 quid is a bargain.

Just press the throttle harder... that's all the SprintBooster does.

Read this if your interested....... http://www.peony888.com/VS/SprintBooster.pdf

P.S some tuning tools also allow you to modify the pedal ratio - so if your serious then they might be a better overall investment as they do far more than the SprintBooster.

That PDF has too much data, I prefer real world tests.

I think on European cars such my Audi you won't notice any difference with the sprintbooster as they have pretty good acceleration but the jeep on other hand is pretty sluggish I have spoken to a few guys that have it and impressed with it, these did a test as well.
