Are there any other advantages to the grounding kit? In my list of mod to do's I kind of bumped it down.

^ apart from shifting which i have yet to find out, the only thing i noticed was throttle response (a little bit quicker but not much) since there were ground wires that go to the throttle bodies

but as for bumping it down the mod list, GOOD IDEA! lmao i thought OOO SALE FOR $30 OFF so i ended up getting it spur of the moment...BAD IDEA lol but hopefully the shifting will make it worth it (if it doesnt make a difference shifting then IMHO its pointless apart from engine dress up)

I'm curious to see what kind of difference you notice. I may do it as well and use the DS exclusively!

HAI.

ok so i tooks ma G for a test driving session after doing the wire thing, and i noticed an immediate difference with some stuff. lmao i hear fireworks outside oddly even though today is not july 4. strange. but anyway after a completely non-sequitur statement, i shall continue. LMAO. the certain shifts i noticed a big difference in were the ones from P>R>N>D. not that those even matter LOL but ya. i THINK i noticed a difference in the SPEED of the 1>2>3>4>5>4>3>2>1 shifts (yes i tested out the downshifts as well ha). BUT right now i am paranoid about the possibility of that being the PLACEBO EFFECT. lmao. ya. WHAT I DEFINITELY DID NOTICE woz the SMOOTHNESS of ALL shifts (D + automatic DS + manual DS shifts) (dont even feel them AT ALL)

as i knew i would be prone to the placebo effect paranoia, i took before and after videos that show the SPEED OF THE SHIFTS ONLY oh and also the sexy growl of my cheap a$$ airbox mod lmfao

um oh and my suggestion is not to get a grounding kit but just get the one wire for the transmishun, but i guess if you want that mynoot gain in throttle response, go with the whole kit, theyre not too much dinero

will post videos in a few minutos.

lmao at the essay here ^^ (no its not redbull, its called D4 ftw) lmao jk

adding fogs to my bumper right now ftw

I was thinking the same thing. They look somewhat out of place with your headlights. Also might look into putting LED turn signals in. They look pretty outstanding.

Yeah lol they don't match my headlight housing 3000k fogs either, but as for led turn signal, I think I'll just stick with my stealthbulbs lol there a lot brighter and look stealthier IMO lol
