[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 292635, member: 4527"] If your VR means Voltage Regulator, then easy to explain. Voltage regulator is to limit the alternator output so it does not shoot to high above 14V which will be damaging to all our 12V components. But it does not help in situation where output of alternator is below 12V or the usage draw is far greater than the alternator output, thus alternator output fail to achieve 12V. Voltage Stabiliser on the other hand act as a temporary reservoir just like a car battery but 10x more efficient in charge/discharge, thus stabilising the voltage from say 9V-14V to a much stabilised 10V-14V enviroment to obtain consistent spark plug firing which helps in the "rhythm" .. you can feel engine scream louder due to a more stabiliser spark plugs firing, if your voltage had high fluctuation before la, or else u won't see much improvement.
