i have seen this around, they look nice, but what do they do? what is there function, what gains do they cause ...... were are the installed, please explain.

cars work from negaitve to posative. These grouind wires improve
the connection to the chassis giving a better connection and a less
restrictive flow of current improving all electrical aspects of
the car. Better throttle response, better performing alternator,
A/C, etc. etc.

and they actually do add horsepower...its been proven

whats a good price and place to purchase the ground wires? Is it easy to install?

i dont even think you have to buy a kit, in my opinion id just use thicker gauge wires and polished contacts. people who buy kits just like them for different color wires. i think aerospeed has a universal ground kit.

i have them and they work to a certain degree. the reason i know is because running more than 1 accessory at once seriously causes you to lose power. example, if i have the fan on and turn on the rear defroster, forget it, the fan is worthless. it definately lowers resistence but im not to sure about increasing power. btw, i have arospeed wires tagged to the alternator, trans block, head and ignition ground. ur supposed to have one on the intake but ours is plastic

There are 4 bolts on the throttle body. That is supposed to be the intake attatchment.

I have Areospeed. It was about 40 bucks off of Ebay. You could make your own wires using 8 gauge wire with gold connects.

Very easy to install.

ImportTuner tested out some a grounding kit on some car. I don't remember which car off the top of my head. But, I do remember the car gaining 5HP on the dyno

I was reding an install on the Hyper Ground Wires, tsome of the cars made good hp and an s2000 made 3 hp, they said they had the best results after putting the wires on the ignition coils of the s2000. What do you guys think of that idea?

I used some extra ground wire from my system and it worked fine...


Make your own.

the main part of the system is the arospeed negative battery terminal post; it builds on the stock setup giving you 2 ground points rather than 1. i could ground another cable to the TB but i dont think that'll do anything. grounding the coils is what you do when you touch the head and the ignition ground, which is right near the head. if you can score one for 40 bucks then grab one. one downfall is the amount of wires you have in your engine bay.

yeah i was thinking about getting this, probly get more hp from this then my intake

Wait, what's the point of putting multiple wires from the negative battery terminal to the chassis? Won't the electricity take the path of least resistence. Oh wait, the flow goes the other way. Yeah, you're just providing it alternate paths of entry, so based on where something else is grounded it'll find the shortest path to the battery. Nevermind. I get it. I'll probably do this too.

so is aerospeed the only one who makes a kit, and does this kit include everything you need. I am thinking about doing this. Could someone maybe give a link to the aerospeed wires.

what my friend sent me: taken from the p5 forums

This is probally a pretty easy one for any body with a set of wire crimppers, some ring clips, and about 7 feet of 4 gauge wire. The concept is simple, you daisy chain the grounds from one side of your engine bay to the other side. Using the first ground as your chassis( right side of car), second to your throttle body, next down to your engine block, split the next wire to your tranny and then next to your battery and daisy chain another wire off battery to another chassis ground of your choice on left side of car.

We need either a detailed DIY, or a kit that tells were everything goes

Use a multimeter or something to check for good grounds.
1. Chassis right to throttle body.
2. Throttle body to engine block.
3. Engine block to transmission and battery negative
4. Battery negative to chassis left.

It's fairly simple to do, but the actual kits use better wire than even audio stuff. I'm not sure about arospeed's kits, though
If you don't know where to properly ground things, chances are you shouldn't be messing with this anyway.

ok so you are saying the kits actually have better wire than if you went out and bought the wire yourself. Are there any other kits than aerospeed and can anyone give me a link to them. Thanks

Just curious..has anyone actually bought and installed the hyperground or the areospeed grounding kit...if so...whats ur feedback on them...
