The ETC (Electronic Throttle Control), which is also known as Drive-By-Wire, has the unfortunate downside of delayed response and subdued acceleration, which can create problems in certain situations such as up-hill starts, quick gearchanges and overtaking. SPRINTBOOSTER OVERCOMES THIS DELAY IN THROTTLE RESPONSE BY PROVIDING CRISP, ON-TAP ACCELERATION WHENEVER THE DRIVER DEMANDS IT.

In electronic throttle control my own personal ride for a few days. Known nothing beats the roaring sound and feeling of systems, the accelerator pedal is connected to to never turn down a challenge and being very instant acceleration. Recently, we’ve heard a sensor that sends a signal to the ECU that curious of the Sprint Booster claims, it was just a lot about a new product designed specifically operates the throttle. The ECU increases a matter of minutes before we were in the JRP to enhance acceleration in a number of popular or decreases throttle effort based on your parking lot snapping the Sprint Booster into platforms named Sprint Booster. accelerator pedal input, however this doesn’t place between the gas pedal and ECU in my STS The Sprint Booster is an aftermarket always translate to instant response. Things like turbocharged 350Z. electronic module that plugs in between the pedal sensitivity, stability control and traction accelerator pedal and the engine control unit control systems can vary on different vehicles ON THE ROAD (ECU) in vehicles equipped with an and can also lead to larger ‘lag’ in throttle The installation takes literally just 5-10 electronic throttle control. Sprint Booster is response and acceleration when its go-time. minutes depending on how long you have to dig an application-specific hardware based product Although some cars are equipped with adaptive around near your foot pedals to find the proper designed specifically for your car. This device is driving technology (which adapts to your driving connections. Then you simply plug in the Sprint engineered to improve acceleration on drive- style based on recent pedal use), the Sprint Booster between the accelerator pedal module by-wire cars by continuously measuring and Booster claims to further improve response, and the harness and you’re ready to go! Your car converting the digital signal providing the ECM increase pedal input sensitivity and deliver more can be restored to stock just as easily. Luckily, the (Electronic Control Module) with a new and impressive off the line performance. JRP team took under 5 minutes to plug in the unit altered signal. Many modern vehicles utilize But even after I had read up on Sprint Booster as they’re experienced staff have already tested electronic throttle control and more online and looked into how it all worked, I and tried Sprint Booster on dozens of makes and vehicles are going that way, especially still remained somewhat skeptical of what models, as the application list reads longer than performance and sports cars. difference it really could make to most vehicles. your number of friends on Facebook. That was until a recent visit to JRP, who are now At low revs my 350Z’s VQ motor responds at the North American distributor for Sprint Booster. approximately half the time in comparison to During a routine stop at JRP to pick up a few of before. It’s insanely quick while accelerating in the regular goodies for an upcoming track day 2nd and 3rd gear as there seems to be no delay (and deliver my usual monthly exchange of in mid-range response and it pulls harder and friendly trash talk), the boys behind the much more aggressive than before. counter had a little gift for me. The expert I really feel a drastic difference in throttle staff set aside response during downshifts and overtaking DIRECT RESPONSE TO YOUR COMMAND! at highway speeds. To ensure my ‘butt-dyno’ Sprint Booster would be much faster due to the quick cable to throttle body system. On vehicles wasn’t playing tricks on me, I clipped the Sprint super quick reaction time this product delivers. If equipped with the cable to throttle set up you Booster in and out multiple times to clearly feel you were to hit the gas pedal at the exact same could simply tighten the cable to eliminate any the amazing responsiveness and overall it made time in both cars, the one with Sprint Booster slack and create faster throttle response, think my 350Z a blast to drive. You wouldn’t think a would get up to speed faster. Sprint Booster of Sprint Booster as the high-tech electronic Nissan 350Z suffers from any throttle lag, but changes the throttle response in the low to mid equivalent. The best way to describe the feeling once this product is in place it makes a huge rpm range where cars spend a majority of time. is to think of any vehicle you may have driven difference in the overall driving dynamic and As a result, your car feels faster, reacts faster equipped with an aggressive ‘sport’ more option, feels electrified with its new aggressive pedal and drives faster.
