Good to know that I can still buy it, thanks.

When I was comparing this set to the GG one, I noticed that the GG uses a much thicker wire, 4ga, compared to the 8ga used by the SxExCx ones. What is the main reason for this difference? Is it just price cutting?

 

they have been determined that there are not performance differences from either size I believe. the 8 gauge is probably more flexible to allow you to work with it eaiser. I will let sean provide the correct response. thats my opinion since I have had Gordgee's kit before

 

I decided to use the 8ga since the performance of the kit does no rely on the thickness of the wire. Most people are trained to think that thicker is better because that is the rule of thumb for an audio system. The difference is that the super-fat wire used in an audio system is transfering POWER. The wires used for a grounding kit are transfering SIGNAL.

For comparison sake, look at the power wire and the remote wire on any car amplifier. You will notice that the remote wire is always a fraction of the size of the power wire. The dfference is power/signal.

If you look at the size of your factory grounding wires in your engine bay, you will see that they are no thicker than string. Making a grounding kit to match that soze wouldnt make sense because it would be too fragile. I'm sure most of you appreciate the look of the grounding kit too.

Summary:

-8ga is good enough
-8ga is easier to work with
-8ga (IMO) looks better because it is not too bulky

8ga FTW!

 

IMO, the GG kit was the best one on the market for sure but I didnt like the way it looked. I tailored mine to have a more show-friendly look.

 

That was my inclination towards the reason why you chose 8gauge but i wanted to confirm it with you.

So the price is $90 to your paypal and how many wires does it come with?

 

Genkiboi8o8 said he paid last night, but the list still shows him as unpaid.

 

90 shipped is the correct amount. If you are 6mt its 8 wires and 5AT is 9 wires.

 

Alright, payment has been sent with the instructions above.

 

I do believe the extra wire for the AT's is a lead running to the tranny as AT's have electrical components that MT's do not. Right?

 

yes that is correct!
