I thought this too, but they're doing such an awful job of 'advertising' it here, that I figured it's not about that. The companies who sell these things don't make false claims, and if someone was working on behalf of one of those companies I would think they'd get fired. Who knows though... social media advertising campaigns defy logic in a lot of ways.

I posted a video (not a claim) of a 5.155 second 0-60 run in D mode without launch control at 95F ambient. Manufacture claims 4.8 seconds with launch control in S on a standard day. <--that's an industry term for you California school system kids.

Post a video of your claimed 4 sec 0-60 in a V6S in D mode w/no launch control at 95F.

Lying outrageously about a great all around car is just plain stupid. An owner never would degrade their own brand with such utter nonsense.

Post the video, not a temper tantrum.

Is this you SGREENLYN? Or just a coincidence?

"call them koooooks and run away"...

It's for comedy. You have to admit whoever that is uses the same thought process as you do:

"ignore the facts that hurt your position"

It's called MS Paintbrush. It's not on twitter. Why would I promote your thing on twitter?

YOU'RE the one promoting it, remember?

Kooky is saying that the pedal introduces lag and that something later in the data stream can erase the lag after it's there. Unless it can see into the future, that's not possible.

If you google sprintbooster, every site would tell you this device does not help with horsepower, acceleration, or any performance figures. It's like adding a brick to your pedal so you reach 100% pedal easier.

By claiming this changes acceleration numbers you have found new functions out of sprinterbooster that the manufacturer didn't include. The numbers you post with the improvements are nice, but can you do it with at least a v box or something? Drag strip? Comparison video with a stock v6s?

for example I can say I installed a sprinterbooster and before the install, my 0-60 is 4.876. After the install it's 4.921. Without any form of proof the numbers don't really mean much.

Hey guys look what I found. Time to hook it up to the oscilloscope?

Wait, I don't need to do that, because the tuning and enthusiast community already knows what these devices do and don't do.

Agree that you really should stop lying about this and insulting the membership is not a way to get your product promoted.
There are certified automotive EXPERTS who are, or have been paid by companies for their expertise that YOU are arguing with. These people have credibility and some may well have attended a west coast educational facility. Facts are Facts and Bullshit walks. Time for you to take a stroll with your BS

The only "experts" in this forum are in how to use use MSPaint to post fake garbage to their twitter feeds. How freaking strange. Seriously though, the low maturity level here is a big reason why you've made so little progress with the F-type.

Visit N54Tech.com - Your Source for International Turbo BMW Racing Discussion and you will find ZERO teenager memes, masturbation photos, and young kids bickering about their twitter feeds.

The BMW community is knowledgeable as hell and somehow manage to reamain 100% focused on remote collaborative development for the cars, and it shows. We (not BMW, who hates the tuner community for making them look like amatuers) have turned our cars into fire-breathing monsters with tens of thousands of owners, fully engaged.

Too bad you aren't focused on your cars here. You post photos of naked *****.

You still can't read.
I said I didn't post your garbage to twitter.

Lying about and promoting your garbage is YOUR job not MINE, remember?

We have people here who have automotive technology backgrounds.

Too bad you STILL aren't focused on the HARD FACTS that can not be changed about your entire argument.

Perhaps if we understood your credentials, we could appreciate your position more. I am curious, what institution of learning did you attend for your automotive and technology knowledge? Many people attend University of Youtube & Twitter I'm told. YTT Tech, for short

The fact which you seem to refuse to grasp is that if the pedal introduces any significant delay (which IT DOES NOT in the F-Type!!), that delay can not be removed later, without the device predicting the future for you. Your device can not predict the future.

A tune is not the same as a pedal curve. Just because a tune may include a pedal curve does not make them the same.



Now is the time to stop ignoring the facts and stop lying about what it can do. Visit the websites of the makers of these products, and learn about them. They do not lie about them.

The tuning community, except for you, understands this.

Attack the expert engine and tech specialist because it doesn't fit your FAKE narrative? Got it!

I am a long-time member of BMW CCA & we kick out clowns like you daily.

Dude - You are just 1000% delusional.

Masturbation photos in a Jag forum. What a mess. What a disgrace.

It would be one thing if F-Type Rs were'n't getting pulled by $10,000 (for the entire car) Stage 2 BMW 135i's crippled by limp mode. So embarrassing.

Your frustration is showing... Indeed I'm embarrassed for you. Your meltdown/tantrum appears to be starting now.

What institution of learning did you attend for your automotive and technology knowledge SGREENLYN?

University of Youtube & Twitter does not count.

Is this the first time you've encountered intelligent people? I know it must be deeply frustrating for you.
