Thumbs up Black Betty Ground Kit (UPDATED!)

Hey everyone, I just got my BB kit just right now.
Here are some pictures of it.
This is the 4AWG 4 wire kit with the new throttle body upgrade.
The quality looks and feels great. They are thick but they bend easily.
The gold ends is a + for me

It took awhile to get here but I should install it either today or tomorrow morning.
I'll take more pictures of it in the engine bay and also give you a review of what I think of it and what I noticed.

UPDATE: Hey guys, I just took the car for a ride, and wow, I'm impressed.
The first thing I noticed was that the radio was louder. The speakers are also louder, the Bose system is so much better.
The throttle has improved, even though I have a reflash. The shifting has improved a lot in D and the shifting is much smoother.
DS is about the same. Manual mode responds better. I noticed it doesn't really lag as much as it used to.

This overall a great mod. Best bang for the buck.


UPDATE:


Enjoy the pictures!




UPDATE

Wow man, nice clean install and the differnce between the stock and these wires is quite a bit more than i expected, i have a 6mt so all im looking for is a bit better throttle response, basically reduce the second oit takes to raise the RPM after you blip the throttle...

Thanks for the review Robby. Your install is super clean, as it's supposed to be. Nice looking engine bay. I'm glad you're happy with the improvement. A lot of folks seem to be skeptical that something so simple and relatively inexpensive can make a noticeable diference in performance. Maybe I should put them in fancy bright colored packaging, slap some Japanese writing and a couple "JDM" and "Made in Japan" stickers on the side and jack up the price 5 times more. I bet I wouldn't be able to keep up with demand then!
