Question Fast Turning Blinker Module or Relay...

I am wondering if there a way to make my blinker light up faster when turning? Maybe a Module or Relay that I can get?

smaller bulbs will make the lights blink faster, altough this is a "ricey" thing to do. In my mind at least. No matter what the same amount of power gets sent to the bulbs. So if they're smaller bulbs they light up and die away faster.

I c what you mean. I really would love to do the real thing not no ricey or getto way. A module or relay replacement would be great if I can find a company that dose them. At least if they work for these cars that would be great.

That's completely incorrect. There's no such thing as power being "sent" to a bulb. The amount of power produced depends on the supply voltage and how much current is drawn by the bulb which is determined by it's resistance.

For the lights to blink faster you would need to reduce the ammount of resistance which means a larger bulb.
