Default there was a post a while back about improving throttle response...

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/114630/img_0123.jpg"></center><p>Well, here it is. All the B6A4 guys that have it are happy so far. The longest term tester is about a year or so old. 4 or so of us have gotten one over the past month. STFA for 'sprint booster' and make your own decision. It took me about 6 months or so of reading reviews. Once other guys whose opinions I trust got their's and had positive comments, I got mine. Response is quicker, and for me, the car is more predictable when accelerating. There is a small learning curve when in stop and go traffic and anticipating drivers in front of you when passing. My opinion is a hit. If you're at QDM and want to see it, let me know. -Terry

Default Not sure about what you mean by on/off. But...

If you mean by on...tap of the pedal gives instant acceleration yes; off..letting off pedal drops rpms quickly, not so sure about that. I can see where some posts I've read they talk about it almost 'lurching'. I don't see that problem.

Default Ahh...then nope. It just removes some pedal 'lag'.

Those that experience this know what i mean. Those that's don't it's hard to convey.
