Well if you look at the cost to replace your accessories, and are regularly at a racetrack then it is worth it, otherwise.....

y do u need your dome light on at idle?



i might be hard to tell a difference since i put a mp,cat-back, intakes,fmic, and pulleys at the same time. as well as takeing the ac, ps, and air pump off



but i will tell you if i like it



i'm building a new system and i always have the amp running with or without the car running. i haven't really seen to much power loss yet at idle. but everyone is diffrent

i don't really commute in the car, but definately street drive it and so as long as the ALT is charging the battery during driving it should be fine.
