Hmmm. In my mind this doesn't seem possible though. If you increase the cable length you are increasing the resistance. You simply can't get around physics on this one. For every foot of length you add to the cable, you incur a voltage drop. For a 2 awg cable the voltage drop would be nearly 1.5 volts for 15ft of cable length while cranking and close to .5 volts under normal operating load.
But what does this mean to me in my application? probably not much.
I see what you say about selecting the right components though. I suppose for normal use it would be just fine to leave things alone but for someone that might wish to fill their car with heavy electronics, then relocating the battery would require a more robust cable. In this case one could simply increase the cable thickness to something like 1/0 awg and be just fine.
My thoughts on using a voltage stabilizer are purely for reasons related to tuning. The injectors and the coil packs are supplied by unregulated power. The unregulated power in a car can spike as much as 2 volts under normal operation due to the cycling of accessories, motors and sensors. This fluctuation in voltage relates directly to injector latency. I was thinking if the voltage was more stable it would reduce the effects of latency on the tune and the tuning process may be easier and/or more consistent. Possibly resulting in a better running engine.
What do you think?
As far as the paint goes I haven't seen any good material out there on the subject. The only reason I want to paint the motor is for aesthetics only. The problem with thermal paints and additives is they don't make any appealing colors and the point becomes mute. If I was smart I would just leave well enough alone and not paint it at all... But I'm not smart :tard:
