EDIt: wait, I drive by wire, I think, does this work? I want one... me wanty anything with "sprint" in the title
Sprint booster only works in eGas (2000+) cars, but I wonder if you could put a shim under the cable where it rolls over the pulley but the throttle body to get the same effect? I have never seen a cable throttle boxster assembly in.person before so it might be a ridiculous idea.

I know what the pre-2k needs... it needs a mini Compound Bow style "CAM" design for the carb cable feed + the sprint booster mod. There... some pedal performance for you 986Fellas

No switching in the boxster, Bran, sorry. We talk about bows and arrow, ok?
