Ohhhh, yeah this is the first time I've ever had to do a grounding kit on any one of my cars but I don't plan on mass producing or doing many other Gs. I thought somehow you were assuming this was my first car lol I just threw this on there since I was bored and wanted to see what the results were. I'm actually going to loom and shrink wrap all of the other connections when the materials arrive. I Just hate that ppl are so quick to jump on others and point out faults instead of being progressive. I own and have modified many high end and exotic vehicles and would never let anything like this go out into the public eye. I just wanted to show you the pics because I had promised them :-)

That's the human side of me. I judge to quickly. But still, good job on the grounding kit.

On another note - I have driven the car a little more extensively and can say that for sure the grounding kit has had an effect on the transmission shifting in both Manu-Shift mode and regular D/DS. I dont know exactly what it is that gets fixed by doing this but I can tell a difference in the smoothness and quickness of changing gears. I would recommend that anyone who wants to spare a few bucks to go ahead and create your own kit.

Thanks for the DIY. I'm just curious as to why manufacturers don't do this to the car out of the box? It seems pretty simple and inexpensive.
