Sprint Booster

Has anybody tried the Sprint Booster? I got mine installed today, very happy with the results. It doesn't make the car any faster, but you do get a noticeable improvement in the throttle response.

You're right, the Sports and Sports+ modes also does this, but this device magnifies the effect. I find that if I switch the Sprint Booster to the maximum setting and use go into Sports+, the car becomes a bit too jumpy. The most comfortable setting for me is to use the medium setting for the Sprint Booster together with Sports mode. This gives me roughly the same throttle response as Sports+ mode, but the advantage is that I get to keep DSC enabled.
