Volt Booster - does it work?
I saw this while browsing www.LS1Speed.com and was wondering if it really works.
V-Plus Volt Booster
Your alternator is designed to put out a specific voltage, generally 13.8 volts. The only problem is when there's a greater demand on the electrical system, such as a WOT blast, the alternator falls a little short. The V-Plus is designed to overcome voltage taper at WOT by stepping up the alternator voltage 2.2v. at 70% throttle. Result? More power to your fuel pump and ignition system. Unit plugs in, with no wires to cut or tap into.
Year Application Part No. Description Price Buy
93-96 LT1 CSP102131 LT1 V-Plus Volt Booster $69.99
I've never seen anyone use one, and this is the first time I've heard of it. Comments?

Re: Volt Booster - does it work?
Not familiar with this one but there are several systems that boost voltage to the fuel pump under WOT. In general I think they are "band-aids"; if you're running out of fuel, setup to a bigger in-tank pump.
