Has anyone here installed Pivot Mega Raizin on there CL9

[hanzzi]

I have just bought the pivot Mega Raizin with the Super Earth Cable. Where would be the best spot to put the unit and the earth cable?

[duzy]

Best spot would be left side of battery

Also this might help

mine sits above the battery

i got a 0 gauge ground

Mine is stuck on the gruppe m intake....

Anyone know where to purchase genuine pivot razin in Australia? Don't say ebay - shit load of fakes

[Fredoops]

Nope. The last batch locally were sold out like 7 years ago...

Am importing a few from Japan, PM if interested.

I bought mega raizin for my lancer about 10 years ago. Now my lancer has died, I am going to move it to my accord euro.
Before I do that I am planning to replace the capacitors with quality capacitors, which will give me bigger capacity and last a long time.
I just ordered 4 Nippon Chemi-con (16V) 6800 uf and one smaller 3900 uf which total to 31000 uF. The mega raizin with the 5 capacitors has capacitance of 21000 uF. Capacitor I bought is the high temp, long life and low resistance variety. Capacitor is approx $20 from rs components.

Anyone interested in doing the same? Basic soldering skill is required.

I'll probably do it at some point when my pivot capacitors start to get old.

Is yours the five capacitor (mega version) unit? Or four?
People who are worried about getting fakes, can replace the capacitors with quality Japanese capacitors. This is the big component of the voltage stabiliser.
I need to check it out but you can get 10000 uF instead of 6800 uF (same dimension as the pivot capacitors (16 mm dia and 40 mm long)). The difference is service life, 10000 uF (2000 hrs) and 6800 uF (10,000 hrs).

5 unit type is what I have.

[Martin77]

Thanks Fred.
Its the same as mine, purple Pivot Mega raizin.
I have decided to also replace the smaller middle capacitor with the 6800uF. So all 5 capacitors will be the same. It will be a tight fit but should fit. Once finished it will be 34 mF an upgrade from the original 21mF. I don't know if this will be noticeable.
Fred, can you please tell me the voltage (low and high) registered on your mega raizin.
Maybe I can use this information to compare if the upgrade makes a difference or not (yes I should have done a before and after, but its too late now).

[Martin77]

So I have been running the upgraded raizin for a couple of months now and I think it's good. The voltage reading is 10.7 V and 15.1 V when I started it a few days ago. Slight idle rev drop when I put the windows down seems to have disappeared. Fred, can you please tell me what the voltage reading on yours are? I should have taken some measurements before I did the upgrade.

Nice stuff there Martin. I'm a big fan of the mega raizin.

What happens when you hit 88MHP?
