One goes to the TPS, another one to the stock grounding point, then you got the starter, to the alternator, the 2 grounding points by the oil cap, and some other ones.... it made the dash lights much brighter after wards- only diff I can tell from doing this. I might ground out my Emanage Ultimate similar way along with the ECU.... I dunno yet.

Well this isn't as clear as you want it and it's stock.

How come all you guys have a newer looking engine cover; have no fear i'm not going to switch.

thanks for the photos, many of you may know lots of the 4th gen guys are now swaping out upper intake manifold for the 2000-2001 upper intake manifold that are on your cars.

wanted to have a look at them in the 5th Gens. Surprisingly though, I have not seen this cover that I have seen on so many photos in this thread ? is this some sort of aftermarket piece ?

Looks real good though. Im going with the Upper and lower intake manifolds off a 2000 model maxima, you guys make what 220 hp at 6500 rpms, i was laughing at my dyno the other day at around 5500 rpms I put up 196 hp but drop off dead and was around 150-155 hp at 6500 rpms, so that will be a huge power boost im looking forward too, and again thanks for the photos !
