Review on ⚡️ Enhanced MSD 8830 Red Noise Capacitor by John Hall

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Reduced a bit but not enough

Needed something to filter out the noise from the MSD 6A I installed in my 95 Mustang GT. Without any filtering, an ignition sound can be heard even with a key/door signal. Installed next to the 6A box, this capacitor eliminated this noise and also did a good job of filtering out the small noise that could be heard on the FM radio/CD. AM needs additional filtering, like the American International S-15A line filter, their antenna filter helps even more, but I don't think you can ever get rid of all that noise, especially in the fringes. Although in the city the combination is not bad. Installation is fairly quick, just strip an inch of insulation, wrap a line around the mounting post, and tighten the screw. It even comes with a rubber cap that covers wires and poles.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
