Iam looking to install a set of grounding wires when I get my G. I would like to know the best place to do the grounding for all the items. Pictures would be nice too.

 

Good luck dude. People are pretty guarded about this stuff to protect people that have done the research. Just buy a set from Gorgee (sp?). It'll come w/ instructions.

 

Yea, gotta pay to play.....

 

Probably best to buy the car first. Just a suggestion.

 

I assume if one buys a $100 kit it includes instructions and hopefully a diagram/picture.

 

Stickers too! BONUS!

 

Awesome! You know how stickers add at least 10hp.

 

Newbie here; Just bought my girl a '03 5AT (she can't drive a stick and right now it's her daily driver) that doubles as my play car on the weekends; I absolutely love it. I haven't enjoyed driving a car this much since my 300ZX Turbo back in high school.

I'm going to dress the engine bay up with all braided stainless wires/hosing and I'm wondering if putting stainless braided covers over grounding gear wires will cause any disruption in the current or negatively effect the grounding in any way?

I do know that for my Harley the common knowledge in the performance forums is that stainless braided spark plug wires have grounding wires and they aren't used in high performance applications (dress up applications only) b/c of the current they conduct away from the ignition system. Is the current so small that with the size of the 4 ga. wires that it's a non-issue?

Seems to be alot of good tech knowledge floating around here and I just wanted to check before I ruin my Grounding Gear.

Thanks for the help and I've really enjoyed reading all the forums, tech, and performance tips.

 

Hey Kentucky, welcome
Congrats on your purchase!
PM Gordgee for info on grounding gear. He is the official guru for this site and
he also sells the kits.
Good luck with your new ride and have fun!

 

Since the GroundingGear™ System carries very little current (it's about the signal transfer, not voltage nor current), using the braided stainless covering shouldn't impact it. In fact, if anything, what the covering may add is some shielding to help maintain the signal integrity!

 

get the nism oground kit its awesome

 

Nothing like some new modern snake oil for the masses. Designed and verified with signal integrity test equipment by EEs I'm sure. And if my stock ECU has maps tuned around sensors with ground offsets from improperly sized wires, then who is to say it's going to perform any better or worse by removing this, only differently. I don't believe for a second that these help in any way until I see some real signal characterization that proves otherwise. Oh wait, but I'm sure there are "dyno proven" gains that are of course within variability of the dyno.

In fact, I'm tempted to buy a set and do the true analysis with the proper equipment on my car just to finally prove it. I'm sure any ground wire seller would gladly give me a set for such purposes, that is unless they are afraid of the results.

 

what a great way to scam for free mods, i shoul dhave thought of that ^_^

 

Yeah. Now if only I can a free lightened crank pulley too, I'll have the fastest car around.

 

Munchee - you are back again aren't you with your know it all approch. Have you even graduated yet? No one has ever said the hyper-ground kits were good for horsepower. Once again you bash what your little hands have never even held. Get a set and then speak to the world from on top Mount ButtMunch. Your just a troll with a textbook and some borrowed knowledge. Unless you've read the entire massive hyper-ground thread and know what the EE's say, STFU and get a life punk.
