Dang, that is COOL! Wouldn't that just be great for everyone, cept us stickshift folks...while, the big alternator thing might help us also (dang...minus us rotary heads...lol).

Either way, it would be GREAT to help fuel economy with something so easy/cheap.

why wouldnt this work on a stick shift or a rotary. In both cases there is an alternator on the engine

Good idea.

Feras....well, normally we don't get to share with stuff they do for piston engines and considering our ECU/PCM is so dang complicated (or just encrypted) I wonder if they would even consider us.

Hey...I hope they do, that would be great!!!
