Question Help with sprint booster install

I just got my sprint booster in the mail, and I am trying to install it. I have the panel below the steering wheel off, its just that the trunk release is holding the panel on. If anyone could help that would be great. Thanks. btw I have an 04 coupe 5at if it makes a difference.

I could be wrong, but I don't think you have to remove any panels. From what I can tell there should be a plug above your accelerator pedal. Unplug that, plug the sprint booster in where this plus was and then plug the original plug back into the sprint booster. Thus, the SB will be inline between your acclerator module and the computer. Maybe someone with more knowlegde than me can chime in though.

I have to unplug the cable and its at the top of the throttle, underneath the steering wheel. I have the piece off, its just that the hood release wont let me pull it off.

the sprint booster increases throttle response, since we have electronic throttles, there is a delay.

Nope this is a rectangle, not a butt. I think.... I have been in and out of it several times and now I am just frustrated. Fits my buddies but not mine WTF.

lol that's funny because it sounds like I'm talking about butts, but I isn't hahaha
