My car felt much better after I installed them. I paid about $35 also. I dont know how much difference there is between them and the hyper wires which run i think around $90 or so.

Yeah I just installed a few wires from the battery to tranny, rad cover, and valve cover. There's definately smoother shifting and maybe better lights.

I bought them too, and they have been sitting at the back of my car for awhile now, I think I will install them soon.

How long does it take you to install ??

Depends. Could take a long time depending on the ground points. I had to remove my stock airbox to get to the tranny point. The rest are pretty easy.

Bridge motorsport has a great kit with the best grounding points.

Unless their refering to an Automatic transmission I have no idea.

What I've noticed is smoother and better accelleration.

Search for a thread here called DIY: grounding kit install. Happies sells them for $40 I think. That's where I got mine (five 4ga wires of varying length).
