RE: Anyone got Max Orido's Magical Fuse?
This is snake oil, they're really just regular fuses. The only things you could do is gold-plate the contacts to ensure they don't oxidize, but that's about it.

A melting fuse like they're used in cars by definition has a defined resistance, which is designed to be exactly the resistance needed to melt it when the current goes above the rated current of the fuse. That means the "no resistance" claim is pure BS.
Melting fuses are by definition a wire in an enclosure, automotive ones in a basic plastic enclosure that's color-coded for convenience.

Interference can be countered by using any combination of shielded wires, capacitors (stabilizing voltage) or inductors (filtering high frequency noise), wherever applicable and needed.

I highly doubt you'll lose 7hp because of old fuses (i.e. having oxidized contacts). There's no fuses between sensors and ECU, so measurement values should never be wrong because of fuses, meaning the ECU isn't affected. And if it was 7hp lost from worse charging of the battery (i.e. higher draw on the alternator), that would be >5kW of loss somewhere, which would have been melting not only a fuse but would be a serious fire hazard.
