What everyone else said. It's cheap, and actually has studies showing it works. Don't expect miracles, but it's a good addition for the price:
Ingestion of TA significantly improved 3KTT performance (TA 646.6 ± 52.8 s and PL 658.5 ± 58.2 s) (p = 0.013) equating to a 1.7 % improvement (range 0.34-4.24 %).

Magnitude-based inference results assessing the likeliness of a beneficial influence of TA were 99.3 %. However, the mechanism responsible for this improved performance is unclear. TA's potential influence on exercise metabolism may involve interaction with the muscle membrane, the coordination or the force production capability of involved muscles. Further research employing more invasive techniques may elucidate TA's role in improving maximal endurance performance.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22855206
The acute ingestion of 1.66 g of T before exercise did not enhance TT performance but did result in a small but significant increase in fat oxidation during submaximal cycling in endurance-trained cyclists.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20739720
Thirty-six untrained male volunteers were equally divided into four groups, and ingested a combination with 2.0 g TAU (or placebo) and 3.2 g BCAA (or placebo), thrice a day, 2 weeks prior to and 4 days after elbow flexion eccentric exercise. Following the period after eccentric exercise, the physiological and blood biochemical markers for DOMS and muscle damage showed improvement in the combination of TAU and BCAA supplementation rather than in the single or placebo supplementations. In conclusion, additional supplement of TAU with BCAA would be a useful way to attenuate DOMS and muscle damages induced by high-intensity exercise.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23392882
Significant increases were also found in VO(2)max, exercise time to exhaustion and maximal workload in test with taurine supplementation ( p<0.05). After supplementation, the change in taurine concentration showed positive correlations with the changes in exercise time to exhaustion and maximal workload. The results suggest that taurine may attenuate exercise-induced DNA damage and enhance the capacity of exercise due to its cellular protective properties.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15042451
based on this review regarding possible interactions between caffeine and taurine, we conclude that taurine should neutralize several untoward effects of caffeine excess.[/quote

Again, don't expect anything earth-shattering, but it's certainly a good pick up for the price.

I take 3-5 g of taurine every day and I have for years. I can't speak enough about it and love it.

Absolutely an underrated supplement. As most said, it's pretty darn cheap too.

Nutriverse has SNS Taurine for $12.99 for 300 grams. AM5 for an extra 5% off.
