grounding kit

[BoostinNYC]

does a grounding kit really works in your engine compartment?
and can any body tell me how to use a VPC & GCC controller. thanx

some have said that ground kits dont do shit, others have said they got better throttle response and their lights dont dim. Its cheap to make your own, maybe not even 15 bux, so i'll give it a shot one day. do a search in the tuning forum on how to use the vpc/gcc. Sorry cant help you there but good luck.

If you where to make your own, where do you guys get good wire. I don't want to spend 80$ on some stupid "monster cable" bs. I know the local home depot has a bunch of wire but it looks kinda weird. The small copper strands are all quite thick and stiff.

I guess my question is, what do look for in good electrical wire, and whrer do you get it?

thanks

... in the case of adding wire to the alt/battery/frame/block there is no difference between wire. get a 4awg from anywhere you can. doesn't matter how many strands, of what thickness and material. Try a local welding supply company.

I know the Hyperground kit was dynoed on a first gen gave 6hp and some 10 torque with the grounding points hooked up as follows:
battery to injector resistor's 10mm, battery to throttle cable bracket, bracket to 14mm tranny bolt, bracket to 12mm fuel rail bolt near the coil packs and fuel rail bolt to shock tower bolt.
but i guess this is just something for those who already have everything cuz its 80 bux for this kit

OH and this couldve been some of the original equipment being almost 15 years old maybe was corroded or something giving this dyno number who knows but i know my 80 bux will go towards something else
