In the Jan. '13 issue of "911 & Porsche World", a magazine from the UK, there is an article on a nicely turned out Cayman. One of the mods is a device called the 'Sprint Booster' which mounts under your gas pedal and works by cancelling out the delay inherent with the fly-by-wire accelerators. Has three settings. Supposed to give instantaneous response. Works with both TIP and manual trannies. I don't know if it would be beneficial to a TIP Tranny as there are already 5 'maps' that adapt to your driving style.

My question is has anyone installed and enjoyed this mod? It runs around $300 and you install it yourself. Any feedback welcome.
