Default Mr Bipes reviews the Sprintbooster...>>>

Dick Bipes, the other half of the Electron Brothers...:-)

Anyway, I don't believe this analysis was linked to during the last discussion of this...
Should answer some questions...<ul><li><a href="http://bipesauto.com/sprintbooster/SprintBooster.pdf">http://bipesauto.com/sprintbooster/SprintBooster.pdf</a</li></ul>

Default i wasn't goin for slander aspect but rather copy right Infringement ... i mean how hard is it to

make a signal mult. "couple of op amps" ... i'm not trying to get him into trouble and i truly appreciate his works but sometimes you have to be super careful when writing stuffs like this.

on the other note, does anyone know if vag com can measure TPS. i have that pedal stopper mod but i want to verify that my throttle is open all the way. is there anyway to measure/verify this?

Default like point and shoot digital cameras...the delay always bothered me. so what this means

is that there will be no delay when pressing the pedal? from the PDF, that's where the most significant difference is, aside from mashing it.

Default how is it copyright infringement???? >>>

that would suggest he is copying it and redistribute it which he is not doing...he is examining the product and validating it does what it says it does.....

TPS has a position report in vag....but i do not believe it states what percentage it is depressed.....

Default actually it amplifies the signal>>>

and at increases the input at lower position of the pedal (less than 30-40% depressed)....then on the top end, it flattens out early.....

Looks to me that you can control it as good with your foot and no Sprintbooster......that is the way i read it...
