Question Ground Wires!! Anyone have them? Any Positive/Negative Feed backs?

I just bought Stillens Ground Wires for the G, i know it aint no big upgrade, but by reading about it, it does something atleast. I was wondering if anybody ever have had ground wires installed, how was it after? Was there really a difference? Is this really worth buying? Opinions please!

the best grounding kit out here right now is by SXEXCX here on the forum, real smooth and cosmetically looks better than all the rest

How many others have you tried? Not knocking SXEXCX since I haven't seen his yet, but I've done, several of the "big names", as have a few of my friends.

Look at all the GroundingGear feedback on this forum including the review thread: https://g35driver.com/forums/reviews/55081-gordgee-s-groundinggear.html. Also check out their website at http://www.groundinggear.com and click on their detailed reviews for various cars.

Their Systems have been around for at least 4 years, and are sold by some dealerships, and have been reviewed on many different car forums. I believe they have custom kits out for many, many different cars, not just for the G, and as a result of their research, have been copied over the years by everyone else.

Gordgee, the President, just happens to be an Admin on this site, and offers the kits to members at what they sell to the dealerships (or at least close). Very responsive tech support as well.

With all due respect for other grounding kit makers, I just want others to know that based on my experiences, not all kits are created equal.

I made my own using 4 gauge red wire. They look good and seem to work OK. There is no down side to installing them - the worst that can happen is nothing. If your car was adequately grounded before, you won't notice anything.

i don't see any impact with the grounding kit, it may cause pseudo differences to some, but serious i can't tell whether mine does anything.

does a grounding kit just rewire everything underneath the car? sorry i've seen grounding kits on different user's signature, but never knew what they were...

I think its good to have. Just another upgrade. It maintains proper voltage and less interferance. Horses can't really feel it bc its not that much. I have a system amp and sub, so i mainly used it for that reason, and my experience the grounding kit and hyper voltage kit did help the bass hit hard my light dimed less. I went with Sun hyper speed.
