I read an article on this item.
Sprint booster is a booster as it is named.
Instead of your throttle response, when your accelerate 1/2 it will
register 1/2, the sprint booster instead will boost the response, maybe say
accelerate 1/4 and register 1/2, therefore your response time is faster.

But the tester did mention, you can also floor the throttle to get the
response. It is up to you, whether to spend the money on this gadget.

sprint booster or pivot throtttle booster or whateven similar products
are not chip tuning but a piggy back sensor that will connect to your
OBD2 socker to communicated with your ECU and help to boost the respond
of electronic throttle by fasten of second's to normal....

thanks all, today able to visit the short that selling Pivot 3, sprint
booster is 3 years old product,.

Pivot 3 drive comes with 3 selection mode. each mode still can adjust the
sensitivity of the response. ask for 1000K..

the PV 3 basic component can use for any car with ECU, just to get the
correct socket for plug n play. mean you can keep n use for your another
car in the future.

more explainable with detail information and design graph compare to
sprint booster.

I still wondering u long run it can make out car ECU to malfunction.
