I know it will work, but how much will you feel the "sport" mode?

The description sounds suspect to me.

So all it does is ditch the delay from the pedal...

Ryan do you have the Hypertech max energy tuner? That one does help some, the biggest benefit I noticed is a more optimal shift point from 1-2.

So if you buy this device..you can seemingly get rid of the "drive by wire" delay? I have a 6 speed so it's not that bad as an auto but does this actually work?

What else can this funky black box do, in lamens terms of course?

What this basically does is makes the distance to when your "flooring it" shorter

It's not tuning anything or making your computer run faster. It's just opening your throttle more at a different rate.

For example if using "stock tune" for every inch you depressed the pedal you open your throttle by 10% this will open it by 15-20% each inch meaning you get to wide open throttle faster. You can do the same thing by flooring it.

I had that spring booster before on my civic I think it's the total waste of money and that little module is costly and I got the same result by pressing gas padal more without it..
