Default Performance Distributors Mini VIP Ignition booster

Anyone out there have experience with the Performance Distributors Mini VIP ignition booster. It basically plugs inline with the pink 12V wire that powers the coils packs, raising it 3 to 4 volts which in turn raises secondary voltage on the coils.

I talked to them directly and got the instructions emailed. simple three wire hook-up. 2 year warranty on Device.

A little pricey due to the fact that 2 modules are needed for each side coil pack harness. $400 range.

I want to try this mod, but just feel funny cutting into the engine harness.

Thanks in advance for your replies.
