well I see they are selling for 200 to 300 depending on where you buy from. Why dont you go to titan and ask them if they can straight dyno for you. If they are backing the product so adamantly then they should have no problem letting you try it out. As for me I will probably go the MSD ignition route with iridium plugs.

they've got my dyno it worked on the 35, how it works is simply when cars are dyno'd at the factory they are running on volts, then when they get here there only running on 12 volts, all the thing does it pretty much gives u your horsepower back i saw a 10hp gain from it. and my dyno is there

i was wondering about this thing, if you up the volts on your battery, wouldnt you fvck up stuff like amps, ccfl ballasts (the one for my demons eyes), and other electronics that are made to run on 12 volts? because you basically up the volts on the battery. wouldnt that fry some stuff, just a thought.

I have this one:

Never did a dyno, I got it with their ignition amp at the same time 2nd hand. Can't say if it works or not for sure but I doubt it hurts.

I had one on my 03 and just put it into my 07. i did it mostly because of all the equipment i run and need for work. I forgot what the experience was with the 03 but in the 07 the acceleration seen quicker and shift harder. This could also have happen when the battery is disconnected and the computer is being reset-ed.
The only reason i but it into the 07 was I was tired of it laying around the place.
It would be nice if it really gives the 10 more horses and torque.

Not necessarily true. Average car voltage with alternator running is 13.5 to 14 volts. I think the most helpful thing is a grounding kit which would improve anything electronic. The only thing hyper voltage can really do is stabilize voltage. It doesnt hurt but i dont think it helps either.

+1

The battery sits at ~12V when the car is off and when it's running the alternator charges the battery at about 14.4V.

what kind of dyno does titans have? did they do a baseline reading and then dyno it with the voltage system after? how many runs did they do?

Titan posted on Craig's list for under $200, might be worth checking out if it gives 10hp gain.

G35 +10 horsepower & 10 ft lbs of torque with Hyper Voltage
