Grounding Kit
I don't like how all the groundings end in one point. I personally prefer multiple grounding points. I have been thinking of just buying wire and grounding the car myself. I mean ground wires don't need to be some fancy brand name. I'm sure there is a DIY on here somone could follow.

Your right...just did some research. I apologize for my misinformation,
They don't say what gauge the wire is. Or what type of wire it is. Might want to e-mail them and ask first. There was some talk in the threads I checked out about oxygen free and strand count (or something along those lines... basically saying how dense the wire was wound) I'm going with a DIY myself. Should be 1. cheaper 2. more fun
yeah you get minimal gains out of a grounding kit but you get hell of alot beter gains if you do the BIG 3 as us car audio guys call it!
dont forget to replace the alternator cables with 4ga pos/neg and the battery too.grounding gives alittle but you also get better gains replacing all the "live" wires! so electrical system will have less resistance.

It still hasn't been proven whether single point or multi point grounding is better. Happies sells the multi-point kits for I think $38 in the DIY thread about this. Doesn't do too much except maybe help the electrical system.
I would rather upgrade my pos and neg cables all at the saem time.Cause think about it..you have tiny 18ga wires from the alternator basically supplying all the electricity for everything and you have hug ground wires? I mean think of how much current our ignition coils put out!!! i would rather have more electricity able to goto them!
