I'm convinced that after waiting for weeks and reading through 15000 pages of banter.. to which snafu never responds ... Smh

That they are useful however I always see the best results in a cap only setup. There isn't much info on cap + bat setups and the little there is shows that they don't help much.

Edit

So I don't use one. But if I did... Hmmmm well you can't argue with 10 farad shakes I guess. As long as its chocolate then I'm in!

Setup:


2010 Hyundai Elantra


Factory Unit via 4 chan NVX LOC


Excessive Amperage "H/O" Alt


Xs D3400/ Xs XP3000
