It depends on what FET's you are using, stacked 7 amp FET's will handle 14 amps of current, as for the voltage, that is also dependant on the FET's themselved. Just upgrading your FET's will not allow you to run more voltage through your car, for that you will need a regulator like the V2 board.

that's right....even with stacked FETs the stock main board can only handle up to 8.4 volts...you would need to run a regulator like the V2.

six tenths of a volt won"t hurt anything
