my **** is back!!! sigh.... after the ecu reset (timing is very critical!!!), and 30 miles later... the ECU has learned my habits i think... the sprintbooster is working amazingly and the extra horses from the spacer play real with the booster..

50$ , the dealer will reset the ECU to the 07. OR you can have your ecu tuned the way you like it by reflashing it after a dyno.. 1 or the other.... I'm very satisfied right now, i don't think i'll do either.. because the booster always keeps you in the high revs and provides instant power at any speed... the extra gains at 3000+rpm from the 5/16 spacer is almost always being used!!!

I think its $320 at JRP in Mississauga, install - they plug it in under your gas pedal... if they charge you for that I would tell them to shove it. lol

I HATE the guys at JRP...

i was wondering the same thing... im sure its nothing compared to the sprintbooster as that ecu can also be "flashed" so, pretty much waste of money...

i dunno about bargainin' but installation is a breeze and takes literally 30 seconds so.. don't let them know that you want it "installeD" since they might charge you for it... just say.. "k i wanna see if it makes a difference and if it does, i'll take it" thats what i said and they installed it.
