Waste of money... you can do the same thing with a relay, and have it wired to your spout connector

all the starter save does is retard your timing so the car will start easier.

If you remove your spout connector, your car will run at 15°

If you wire a relay in place of the spout connector and power to it from a power souce that is only 12v+ while the key is in the RUN posityion, but 0v+ in the start position... Your car will crank at 15°BTDC timing advance, and will only go into full computer timing advance once started!
