Another person with Premium and Sport+.
For what it's worth my $300 intake definitely improved throttle response with no changes to my tune other than MAF transfer updated for 120mm MAF vs stock 85mm but I digress.
You know what the funny thing is? All the people who are now telling you to get a cai because it is worth it, well a few months ago, many of those same individuals were arguing tooth and nails that aftermarket intakes did absolutely nothing. I remember getting into heated arguments with them. They said it made no changes in hp/tq, it did nothing, it was all placebo, the stock intake is better, etc. Now guess what...they all changed their tune. The same people who called me an idiot on here and called me names and made fun of me and others, just like you're doing, all now have intakes. All it took was one person to do an independent dyno that proved what I and others have said all along...even tho there were multiple other independent dynos that had already proven it. So you go ahead and listen to what these guys on here tell you. If it wasn't for that dyno, they'd all be telling you that intakes are a waste of money too instead of telling you to get one. But go ahead, keep on following them. See where it gets you.
Apparently people like it (being on a full throttle with 50% or whatever of the accel pedal demand). I would love to see how that's working for them if they actually take it autocrossing or the the track - where (at least I) you try to keep the throttle at just the right position to maintain traction in turn.
Yeah did you see their videos with that display and the fake static graph they show? All their wording is bs as well. I think if they advertised it truthfully they would have close to zero sales for the price theyre asking. If they sold for 20 to 30 bucks they might have a few sales but even then most people would say its just a gimmick.
The three sacrifices Im talking about are:
Sport/track mode doesn't loose much resolution 85% pedal is 100% commanded and 0-17% pedal is same as normal mode only 22-85% is ramped up and it's not extreme.
I had a similar device (SprintBooster) on my M3. It was great for day-to-day as the M3 had a programmed lag in throttle response, like the Mustang, to stop people spinning out (cf cars and coffee videos). This got on my nerves and make practicing heel-toe shifts very difficult. The SprintBooster fixed this. I turned it off at the track (the ones with turns) as it made the throttle way too twitchy. The programmed "sport" mode and "sport +" mode are clearly programmed by someone who doesn't do track days!
Nobody ever said that they did nothing. The argument was that the change isn't as noticeable as you were leading on, and the stock intake does a good enough job. We're not getting into this argument here, I'd just like to point out that you still misunderstand what others were trying to say.
Very over priced, and yes the power gain claims are total B.S.
I understood exactly what you said. You simply don't know what you're talking about. I don't have one on my GT. I said that multiple times. But I also said I've used these devices and others like them on other cars. Therefore I am by far more qualified to make a comment about what it does than you are. Why are you even here commenting if you never even used the product. ANd how are you gonna tell me that the change isn't as noticeable as I'm saying it is if you never used it and I have. Like I said, you don't know what you're talking about because you're commenting on something you've never used.
Well if your head hurts from reading too much then I don't know what to tell ya. I say what I have to say. You don't like it? I don't care. And yes, I do enjoy hearing myself speak. Because when I comment on products, it is from experience using them...unlike you. You're the one talking just for the sake of it. I mean, you're talking and arguing about something that you never even tried. Still reading...?? I'll put it like this. I'm talking about what I know. You're just guessing. Come back when you've tried it.
