Has anyone tried this product, im told its a competitive product to pedal commander and the tune shop is telling its better.

Curious to know before i pull the trigger, also might be going with the Giac Tune for my '22 gts

I have used the sprint booster in the past and really enjoyed it. Many ways to incrementally adjust throttle sensitivity to dial it in "just right".

 

I have not tried one yet but have a friend that is convinced they make a significant difference. Our base Macan doesn't seem to me to have as much lag as the S or GTS. If I had either of those I would sure consider investing in a Sprint Booster to improve throttle response.

 

I bought a Sprint Booster 2 years ago. Never got around to installing it.

 

OK i ll try it, I will update you guys as soon as i install

 

Installed in my 22S and love the more responsive throttle. A long torx screwdriver with a magnetic tip made it an easy mod.

Pedal Commander has more modes, but SB is sufficient for me.

 

I had one on a 2009 BMW 650i Sport Coupe. I remember dropping it off at the agency for something. The tech asked what mod I had done to get more pedal out of the gate.

For those who know or owned an e46 M3, it’s like depressing the SPORT button. Hope that helps.

 

Sprintbooster is the original, if I recall. I have one installed on a ‘22 Macan GTS and definitely got rid of the throttle lag. These devices will not improve performance but will make it feel faster due to the improved throttle response-best mod in my opinion given the price, I have the Pedalbox with Bluetooth on another car and works as advertised.

 

Can anyone recommend which one to buy? I know they both do the same thing, but is there 1 I should avoid, or 1 I should 'definitely' get because of X or Y etc?

 

Sprintbooster is the original and it doesn't have the Bluetooth feature. Pedalbox and Pedalcommander does. I have a Sprintbooster on my Macan GTS and a Pedalbox w/Bluetooth on another car. On both cars, I set them and forget, so the convenience of having Bluetooth isn't worth the extra $$ IMO. On the Sprintbooster, you can control the setting with a wired controller. They all do the same thing. I'd buy the less expensive one.

 

My friend has a Roar pedal Bluetooth $159, and it changed the 2022 Macan GTS experience in normal driving, sharp, no delay, how it should came from factory

 

Roar Pedal seems to have the features of Pedal Commander with a smaller form factor and lower price.

 

So I did the below with a shop about 2-3 weeks ago and that is what it cost me. i gotta say its pretty crazy fast, it hits you so hard in 2-3 seconds that scares the crap out of me lol

I dont know im only coming from a 991.1 targa 4s and it never hit me that fast. So i have to say its a pretty good upgrade if you want to splurge. I am not sure about HP gain 100% since I dont have access to Dyno, but im willing to try if anyone has a place near me.. Im Central NJ but always willing to go for a nice drive =)

Im still waiting to install the Pedal Commander or similar product, the shop tried the blue tooth option and it kept loosing connection so he didnt like it. Didnt want to have me keep that and keep complaining lol..

So we will see what he gets me next.

GIAC has been around a long time. I remember they offered a SC kit for my 2003 e46 M3. It was capable to take my M from 333hp to 600hp…

 

Installed pedal commander today, I gotta say its amazing.. I tried only regular drive mode and it feels like sport mode when pressing the pedal. but doesnt hold it in lower gear too long like sport mode.
