Default Throttle Booster?

http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/pts/1570132309.html
Has anyone heard of this and is it real?
Please feel free to comment...
I wonder when you're racing does it really give you more control over your throttle?
OR

Sounds like it could work but I don't understand what it does.

Do they claim their sensor can catch the voltage faster?
Even if it has a higher resolution (steps), it still has to feed into the stock ECU at the stock rate.

I think if you tension your cable, you'd get more results than this.
I've never had any lag or response issues with the DBW.

Post in the general section to get more opinions of someone around the country that may have used it.

i have a turbo, and that helps with my throttle boosting

edit. i think boofster has a supercharger to boost his throttle. same concept, different path. just as good though

i know, some cars this can be an issue. not the s2000. i rode with you before the reflash and never noticed you didn't have a cable. it felt exactly the same.

this DBW thing is like the microwave, people don't understand how it works, so they make up rumors and myths about it.

Agreed.

I have driven several DBW s2ks. No noticeable issues.
