Default Hot wire kit or volt boost??

Seems alot of sponsors sell both the Casper volt booster or the hotwire kit. looks like they do the same but looks like the volt booster is less involved the the hotwire kit. What are opinions on which to purchase. Just looking for safety on fuel pump voltage. Not having any issues but don't want any either. Thanks.

I think the direct feed to the pump is the way to go. You are looking to specifically keep the pump voltage up which the hotwire will do. Personally there is no point in bumping the voltage if you can't get the current to the pump.

another vote for the hotwire kit. vboost is good, but the hotwire is better. ive used both.
