I like the idea too, not just for the windows either!!! I did a search and found next to nothing on them though. Where can you find them for sale?

oh gotcha. Well it says how much it increases the volts but it doesnt really tell how much that increases fuel volume. I think that a racetronix PnP and this casper unit should be enough for 550rwhp.

Plugs right in and from 70%+ TPS it boosts right around what it claims to...my gauge actually showed a 2.5 increase

I used to run a volt blaster. Not sure what brand it was (not the same as we sell now) but I think it was a little over enthusiastic as I kept blowing out my headlights at WOT.

I had HIDS, and one the balasts would always burn out when I would go WOT. Now that I think about it, that didn't start happening till after the Caspers Voltblaster install..hmmm
