    I literally did the same thing this last weekend...I used my HKB voltage booster and the idiot gauge indicates a higher rate of charge by a hair...I'm happy and its never started this well before either! Ha!

    I would love to hear how you hooked up the NOCO Jump Starter to OBDII port so I can do the same and keep all my settings to do battery swap.

    It does start noticeably better for sure!!!

    This little guy right here, hooks up to the output on the NOCO Jump starter and plugs right into the OBDII!

    According to my Kenwood head unit, the HKB bumped my charging voltage by .5v. I was between 13.5-14 now 14-14.5 depending on operating temp.

    Thanks! The F150 is nowhere near the truck (as we all know). Terrible turn radius, sloppy handling, timid acceleration - lacks punch. Just doesn't feel tight. WAY better gas mileage tho. Almost double what mine gets, though mine is significantly heavier.

    Wanna trade? I've been in a ram 1500 for 5 months. Horrible everything and worse gas mileage.

    Received my coolant crossover pipe from Magnuson today which was warrantied due to a small coolant seep. Glad they sent a new one prior to me returning the defective unit. Also ordered a compressor mount from SDHQ and have an appointment scheduled for next Tuesday to get the dual ARB compressor installed along with the new crossover pipe.

    What would one use to check the voltage? I'm curious now to see what it is and see what the battery lists. Like I said I haven't had any issues in about a year and a half with it so far but wouldn't mind getting it to where it should be.

    Edit: Hope this didn't sound too stupid, I mean something more precise than the analog dash gage.

    My Tundra is my best tool. Been towing and making work easier. Had my buddy taking this pic us towing equipment to job site. The boost auto tow mirrors were the best investment beside RAS and Eibach suspension. Waiting for my Coachbilder shackles to come in which will be my next mod.

    Well finally done....for now. TRD Pro Foxs installed with 1/4 coach builder shims in front and Toytec rear shackles in the rear at 1" setting. Wheels and tires installed. 17" method 701's zero offset with 285/70-17 KO's. I think it came out great.
