Looking up something for a friend. Dont need to know how to make my own...or someone to tell me its a waste of money. If it saves you gas...he wants it.
YOU ARE WASTING YOUR MONEY. THESE DONT DO **** AND WILL MAKE THINGS A LOT HOTTER UNDER YOUR HOOD. I KNOW OF A KID WHOS OIL CAP MELTED PARTLY BECAUSE OF THIS WASTE OF A MOD !!!

Rep Power: 812 Keep telling yourself that. I thought it wasn't helping so took it off, noticed a drop in performance and put it right back on. Makes things alot hotter? How in the world do you figure that? The box itself is cool to touch, and the wires don't heat up either. Sounds like your friend messed up something.

it would make sense if ur talking about grounding wires (not sure if its possible tho) but how could the hvs heat things up? all it does it connect to pos and neg of the battery, if anything it'd make the battery heat up, its not connected to anything else.
good job

Rep Power: 812 Okay then did you know that ground wires come stock from the factory or your car won't even work? All the kit does is upgrade them to larger gauge to improve electrical flow. They don't get hot at all. Now if you use 0 gauge, then there's gonna be problems.
