Like a Sport mode button that is the besk way to describe this, I have just driven to work and its a DIFFERENT CAR, makes it more GT3 like, if you don't try this you are doing yourself a dis-service as a TT owner and there is a 30 day day money back guarantee

911.racer is infamous around these parts
I am sort of on the skeptic side of things here too. Without being able to change the map, I can only imagine it changes how quickly and by how much the pedal is pressed.

I had one on my Audi S5. It's a clever little idea, but as posted countless times above, it's an illusion of power. Nothing changes, but the fact that your perception of power is changed. You tap the throttle and it jumps as if you moved the pedal much further. THAT'S IT, folks.

For a fairly stock car, it's a nice cheap way to feel more sporty. My question is the same as asked previously....with a tuned car (ie EVOMS, ump, etc), will this do the same, or has the throttle response been altered? Or....will the response be even faster?

For almost $300, you are already 1/3 the way for a tune which WILL give you more power and not just an illusion of more. Are people installing this WITH their tune? I was under the impression that tuners do modify the throttle with their tunes?

tuners modify the ECU, not the TCU.

find me a tuner that can SUCCESSFULLY modify a 996 TCU and I will paypal you the full retail price of a sprint booster lol

FYI...I already tried the Evo TCU solution with no success

This seriously ONE OF THE BEST MODS EVER, particularly if you have bigger Turbos etc and a tuned car it simply spools everything up massively quicker,its COMPLIMENTARY to a tune & does things a tune cannot easily do. Your 10 year old TT turns in something you dont want to stop driving ............. Hold on tight

Why don't you all stop fence sitting, its a money back guarante and costs 300 bucks, I have spent more than $100,000 ++ modding my 996 TT over the last 10 years so I am least qualified to comment
