Default Re: Shogun Stop It - does it work?

Had one and was having tons of problems with reaction times. I spoke to a couple of respected Trans guys and they told take it out and one told me to throw it in the lake at E town. I did and the car went back to normal.
I went one further and took it apart, scraped the rubber goo of it and I found a Capacitor and a Resistor wired in parallel. I called an Electronic Guru friend of mine and explained what I found and he told me it was a 1ohm resitor and a diode so that the voltage would not feed back. I measured the resistor and it was way off, something like 8 ohms of resistance. So that's like adding delay in the box. Also when I went to buy, it was explained that this maintained a constant voltage to the Trans brake solonoid. When I took it apart I expected to find some kind of circuit board or voltage filtering system, nothing like that.

I still have it to show people at the track when they ask about it. As far as the parts value, probably about $2.00.
My opinion and others, leave it out.
