B170 Sprint Booster

[Guest nemo]

Can the B170 be fitted with a "sprint booster". Is there any downside to add this module? Do we need to tke it out before sending for servicing?

at first, yes, cuz when u lead foot down the pedal, it suddenly seems to have a ton more power compared to before the SB. but after a while, once u can get used to it, u can control the fuel consumsion to go back to previous way.

for me, ive driven with the sprint booster about 210km x 2 = 420km consecutively, and yes, i believe that becuz your accelerator now feels like a jap car (no need for lead foot), i tend to push it to about 3000rpm or more before letting it upshift. last time was about 2000-2500rpm before i let it upshift.

Oh wow so basically it changes the trottle response. But would it affect the comfort of the ride as it changes gear? Does it get too jerky?

to your first question, bulls eye.

2nd question, nope, no difference in comfort mode or sports mode with or with the SB. by far my c180 hasnt given major jerks to the transmission no matter what mode or style im driving it.

for my bmw 523i, when in sports mode, the transmission gets hammered into the clutch like repair is free. so yea. dont worry too much.
