I had one of these a while back, exactly the same one.

Looked pretty in the engine bay, but didn\'t do what it is supposed to.  I would monitor the voltage on the Apexi and it would fluctuate with revs, always staying overe 12 volts.  So I would imagine if you paid out for a proper one from one of the big tuning houses then it might do the job, but these aren\'t worth anything unless you like a flashing light in your engine bay.
