Re: voltage stabilizer ???

These units use an independant power source to stabilize the voltage being distrubuted to the components that are drawing power from your battery. Basically, it gives your battery a little kick in the

during high loads/current draws. I personally wouldn't drop the cash on it, but I don't have a monster stereo system either.. Probably be one of the last upgrades on my list, unless I had electrical issues of course.

Re: voltage stabilizer ???

i have the hvs-gt i got a few years ago for $200, it made around 10whp on the evo so i figured its good for a few hp on the civic and better electrical stability. it just has two wires you connect one to + battery clamp and one to - battery clamp. i havent had any problems and noticed a tiny difference after installing. i would say its a good mod if youve run out of things to spend $ on lol.
