I installed mine over the weekend.

Great kit, well thought out and top quality components. Thanks again.

I can't say that I notice anything different about the car, but my sex life improved.

Weird.

its a good idea, to scrape away any paint that may be covering the contact point's, this goes for your stock ground wires also...bare metal to bare metal people

Glad to hear everyone is happy with the kits


As for the PM sent to me about grounding the coils.
You can't . The coils are not grounded to the valve cover/engine block. The coil grounds are in the wiring harness from the ECU and the coils are insulated from the engine block.
With 2 grounding points to opposite sides of the the engine block (cylinder head and alt bracket) there is no need to ground the valve cover.

There is a difference..
i had little argument with my co-worker.he thinks grounding kit is useless.
so we checked voltage drop @ alternator.
before installation, it was 0.35V
after installation, it was 0.08V.
there is 0.27V difference. Less voltage needed to run alternator.
car shifts more smooth and notice my stereo got louder.
Awesome product :thumbup:

I wanted the wires as visibly descrete as possible. Hard to see them? I made my own battery terminal and grounded the alternator, right fender, ECU, throttle body, transmission, left fender, and engine.
