This.

Peter, if you would like to build one and send it to me, I would happily test it in my CVT insight for a few weeks and see how it does. I do have a few questions however.

What about auto-stop? Will that cause problems with the car wanting to turn off?
What about 4krpm+? Does it just always have the DC-DC converter running?
Can I completely remove the IMA battery from the car, for the reduced weight savings?
