Quote: When I speak from my personal experience, the CVT version its to die for. Cause it makes the car drive properly, vs. having to continually mash the pedal lower and lower to get more power..
Well thats essentially what it does by slightly amplifying the pedal signal, it peaks the voltage of the circuit before reaching full pedal press length.

Additionally if the CVT control unit (whether it resides in the ECU or elsewhere) has adaptive logic it will tune the throttle response to a more "sporty" driver (i.e. it will disable some of the fuel efficient logic built in for reduced gas consumption by providing a slower acceleration). However, as control unit programming is proprietary there's no way to know for sure except extended empirical testing.

You are right about the M/T being more responsive in the low end versus top end. Flooring it makes virtually no difference vs the first third of the pedal. It's mainly about where you are in the gears power band. Unless you launch in first and maintain the second cam timing (stay beyond 4k between shifts) you're going to have very slow acceleration (unless you rev-match downshift to get into the higher RPM range).

But as the CVT is purely electronic and computer controlled its a mystery as to how it functions and interprets pedal movements for a driver's desired behaviour since its obviously not a consistent behaviour.

I can not drive my car without a sprintbooster, rather blow my brains out. Its that critical.
I am glad you like in Vincent

Of the 15 car club guys that have bought it in the past month. 0 have returned it.

manual and CVT are two different sprintboosters.

Manual has a more sensitve lower end vs. the CVT. The CVT has a more sensitve middle.

I was just wondering if any of the people who got it from you drove an M/T lancer and how they find it.

so the only difference between the old vs new is the option to turn the booster off?
