Grounding Points

Who knows where all the grounding points are in our car? Im gonna replace all the grounds. I heard it helps throttle response and a whole bunch of other things, . Also 4 Gauge wiring will be the most efficent or am I wrong?

There's over 120 ground points, how in the world would you replace them? Replacing means to take the old out and put the new in, meaning you'd have to trace each ground back to the source, cut the wire, and splice in a new one. There's like 5-7 ground points you should clean and run new wires to from the battery or something. 4ga is overkill.

That's why they're ricers.

Inexpensive car audio amp wire is plenty for any grounding you do. You can add the heavy ground cable after cleaning the existing one - taking out the existing is a bad idea, IMO.
