Default The OEMs need to cover for dumbasses who leave their lights on for hours at a time. Especially with

roadside assistance these days, it pays for them to build excess capacity into the system, so they aren't paying for a tow truck to go jump a car when the owner leaves his lights on overnight. I'm guessing that the dynabat doesn't have nearly the storage capacity of a full size battery.

You would probably take that out at the track or strip.

Default wow ! - looks good - it's a shame you can't use both lights...

what's it like when you have the other light in - does it still make great power?

Also - this ram air thingy I believe wont give you the "dyno" hp you should get - does it only come into play when your driving?

cheer's

Default I can't feel the difference from the seat of my pants, but the next time at the track...

I'm going to make a few back to back passes with the headlight in and the headlight out and see if there's a difference.

No, the ramair probably wouldn't show up on the dyno since the little fan you put in front of the car can't come close to real world conditions.

Haha, I didn't even use a camera to take those pics... It's a digital camcorder. =P
