Hi everyone. I just got back from the SEMA show in Las Vegas a few days ago and saw many interesting things. This I think will interest everyone though. It's a drop in hybrid preformance modification that can be adapted to any vehicle.

It's a large picture so you may want to start loading it. Anyways, they make kits to drop in to several Hondas and a Ford Focus already it looks like. They are saying 350 amps at 48 volts from an ultara capacitor and it replaces the alternator so I'm guessing there is a DC/DC built in to the box somewhere. If that is correct your looking at about a 17KW electric boost which is more than the Insight does. Current price is set at $3500 for the kit. There is more on their web site at:
