Grounding wire kit?

Anyone think of putting one on the redline? I dont think there are any members that have one ( i could be wrong ).

here is a example of one. This one is the " Apexi super grounding kit "

I would imagine this thing would be a pain in the ass to install in the RL because of the trunk battery. I believe this thing needs to connect to the battery.

whoa there killer dont fall into the fake number trap. LIke an intake gains 20 hp garbage. This is nothing to jump on. The numbers are all bullshit I assure you. If you need something flashy then you can buy it but dont for gains that you think you will get.

I saw some dyno with "hyperground" gain 1 or 2 hp

but, you don't have to buy this... only add more ground from body to tranny and engine... no need of those costly things!

Personally, the only gain I see from this is maybe better throttle response (drive-by-wire, so gotta help it some how, or do nothing).

It would help if you have the sound system from hell and need a KW or two for the four amps in the trunk. That could cause a ground loop thru damn near anything short of a perfect unified ground. Other than that, not a damn thing...
