Sprint Booster – Is It Worth It?

A sprint booster, also called wind booster, pedal box, idrive, throttle controller, pivot controller, electronic throttle controller, e-drive, plug n go module, pedal commander or throttle re-mapper, is a device that intercepts the signal between the accelerator pedal and the engine management on a fly by wire throttle. It takes the signal from the pedal and outputs a modified signal to the engine management. Claimed benefits include faster engine response, elimination of throttle delay, better performance and the ability to unleash the true potential of the engine. How do they work and do they really enhance performance? This article is not a product review. I have not used a sprint booster.

iphone 8 review

About iphone 8 This week’s (sep 8 2017) Apple Loop includes the new features in the iPhone 8, the shocking price of Apple’s smartphone, the new handset’s limited availability, why the real winner is the iPhone 7S, Apple Watch’s new mission, iPad usurping the MacBook, a new case for your AirPods, and why James Bond’s Sony smartphone may be doomed.

Trending iphone x

IPhone X: Release date, specs, price and all you need to know please read this The iPhone X is “the future of the smartphone”, according to Apple’s CEO Tim Cook. He announced the swanky new phone after the far more modest unveiling of the  iPhone 8  and 8 Plus – and it stole the show. This is the upgrade we’ve been waiting for, even if it costs a small fortune. The iPhone X (or iPhone 10 as it’s pronounced) is the first drastic new design we’ve seen on an iPhone since the iPhone 6, a phone released back in 2015. And it comes with a host of new features and flourishes we’ve never seen before from Apple. We have seen them from other smartphone manufacturers, though. It’s a big claim that the X is the future on the smartphone, I’m sure Samsung will have something to say about that, but I firmly believe it will shape the future iPhones for the next few years, at least. What makes the iPhone X stand so far apart from every other phone on Apple’s roster? Ther...
