Default Another Sprint Booster question.

I know there has been a lot of debate over this product... So to date what's the feedback from those who have had this now for sometime... Would you buy it again? Has the novelty passed and are you now "used to it"? And did it alleviate the hesitation from the computer to figure out what gear to go to?
I'm tired of punching it to get onto the highway and nothing happens!
Yes I have mods and a tune and they don't correct this lag.

Thanks guys

The throttle mapping on the vette is total crap, worse you can't change it because the traction control module freaks out. I've considered getting one of these as a band aid but $300 for what is basically a resistor box is unacceptable.

PS it wont fix what you're talking about, it just makes the computer think you're pushing the throttle farther then you are. That's ALL.
