Default Buddy Club racing condenser

Hi Guys,

Just curious with this Buddy club racing spec condenser. Anyone fitted it on their Z yet?
IMO it looks nice on the engine bay compare to other grounding system. But, not sure whether it will help the performance bits or purely just for looks




cheers,
Jerry

Grounding kits, condensers, snake oil, none of that stuff does a damn thing for a car already in good condition. There are some independent reviews around, but for the most part, it goes w/o saying that those are not 'performance' parts. Ever seen any of these on a 'Vette, or a Mustang, or a BMW? For some reason, they are geared at the Jap market. They must think we're all ricers.

i agree on the snake oil. LOL grounding kits are funny. Make your own for like
30-40$ if you really want one. Maybe if i put like 15 ground wires on my 1400watt amp it would make it like 3000 watts?

New article out on condensers. The change in torque curve suprised me on the buddy club voltage stabilizer but IMO unless your car is at the point where you have to dig deep for that extra couple horsepower cause you have squeezed all the big numbers out of it already, not worth your money.

Your link leads to a blank page, but that's OK, since I know it's

how the hell would a condenser improve engine performance? its part of your A/C system, if you want to get any kind of miniscule differance just remove the A/C system for weight reduction.....

We are talking about electrical condensers. Maybe make sure you know what you are posting about before you post
