He did upgrade the three caps on the board, they are almost twice the stock size. The really big cap (1800) has short leads and is soldered on where the power wires meet the board. The also added a heat spreader to the backside fets and a heatsink to the cpu/brains. I was very impressed with the cooling, especially that it ran cool for so long without a fan. I have a few other stock MM and they do not run that cool with fans and in lighter vehicles than the buggy. Definately worth doing on a 4s setup, made a noticeable improvement on startup too.
