The sprintbooster
#121
pm'd.
question though- as to the auto shifting issue, i just want to try to get this straight, im alil confused. in my car, theres a point when it will no longer allow me to downshift into 3rd gear. (same with other gears) so what seems to happen is the car no longer has the "oops thats gonna over-rev me" function?
and also, when comming to a stop, it wount drop back into 1st gear?

hi for the last question it will drop back to 1st gear when u come to stop, dont worry about that.sprintbooster doesnt change that function however people say when u downshift the car it would downshift no matter what ur gear is which never happens w/o sprintbooster. i havent try that in my car but seems like it does eliminate that auto-control-the gear is good for the car- function.

I'm confused as well, there is only one guy saying these things. 1000's of these have been sold for infiniti's alone so I don't know what the problem seems to be for him. But what I think he is saying that iin his car doing 120kph and slaps the tiptronic down and lose count you could end up downshifting into first gear at 100 kph or whatever. I don't think this is anything to do with the spring booster, it shouldn't be because it is just a booster for the throttle and nothing else.
No sense him coming to Hamilton, I don't keep stock at my house.

ya.. for sure.. its a lot louder since you can rev it much higher faster before actually taking off...
I pretty much raped it the past couple of full tanks and i got a decent 430KM average out of it (i think 63 litres or something)... thats pretty good considering i don't drive on the highway much.
