    I hear a lot of posts saying the redline stays at 6800 and some saying that the power hasn't increased.
    Yeah it's been recently found out that the shark tune is kinda trash. I still love the drivability improvement from the throttle response changes, but definitely no noticeable power increase.

    Thank you for the info. It's a pity you have to pay that amount of cash and nothing happens. I've read so many posts people saying that it didn't even changed the redline to 7000 rpm

    What about sprint booster worth it ?

    I've bought three Shark Injectors over the last couple years and, in each case, I noticed improved throttle response and other obvious features I won't detail, so they do work to a significant degree. On my xi's (1 auto, 1 6MT), I noticed a small power bump, but I didn't notice any power bump on my ZHP. However, I did notice that my ZHP wasn't hitting 7k rpm like my 6MT xi. Come to find out, my ZHP was hitting the 6,920 rpm limit as poorly advertised. I can't speak to the ECS/Turner changes described by ZHPizza--that may prevent me from buying more in the future and prompt me to pursue some other tune... too bad.

    I thought about the Sprint Booster, but the throttle response on all my cars is amazingly instantaneous, but each has different sensitivity. My auto is most sensitive, my 6MT xi seemed perfect, and I used to think my ZHP was under-sensitive and in need of a booster. However, the more I drive the ZHP the more I find I can more precisely control the revs, so I abandoned the idea of the booster which, as I understand it, simply amplifies the input.

    These typically aren't proved claims. Either they were installed incorrectly or their expectations were unrealistic.

    6920 RPM is practically the same as 7000 RPM...

    I can tell you that that extra revs at the end really help me out on track. There are a few turns on some of the tracks I frequent where it's a waste of time to have to shift up to 4th and right back down to 3rd again. With the extra revs, I can just let it rev out, and it's practically right at the rev limiter by the time I have to start braking.

    Not to throw a loop in the discussion, but I installed the Sprint Booster on a 2002 330Cic (AT), and it was great. Easy to install, no battery charger necessary,
    and it was a marked difference from the stock setup. I also had it on a VW Beetle Turbo S and it was similar-fast throttle response, easy to install, and no issues for the duration of ownership. (I own neither car at this point)

    I agree. I first had one on my ZHP Step with the Sport Button Mod and loved it. What a difference! I even bought one for the M3. This isn’t a tune so no charger required. Plug and Play.
