eBay item- is this BS? 'Votage Stabilizer'

Im tempted to think that this would do nothing, but figured I'd ask the forum...

Thats basically what I have for a battery (Batcap 800) for weight reduction (13lbs)
Would having an additional capacitor do any of the things they are claiming? What about if you actually are running with a true battery.... Thanks-

I have seen some of my friends put these things in their intakes... I have never been sold on the cheesy idea... does anyone have one of these and do they do anything?

It's only good if you want to pay $40 for a box with two wires hanging out of it.

save your money and buy real performance parts.

Their is a voltage regulator inside our alternators and it does a fine job.
The turbo whiz in the intake just takes your money and probably causes restriction if anything. But if anyone wants to send me 20.00 i will bless your car for more power and better gas mileage.

Don't forget it has a Nismo sticker and therefore must be high performance!
