Just a FYI for anyone, I just did my grounding kit along with the vias fix and my car feels completly different. Not only more power at all rpms but I noticed faster up and downshifts on my auto. Took me all weekend to do all these (damn 15 hour jb weld) but it was well worth it. I attribute my upper power gain to the vias fix and lower and midrange to the grounding kit.

I was skeptical about putting a grounding kit on my 5th gen as it provided miniscule effects on my 3rd gen. However, the gains are great. Also did the big three with the grounding kit...

Crisper shifting on my automatic was the very first thing iI noted from adding the grounding wires, along with all the lighting being just a bit brighter.

first off thank you for the tips on where to ground....


Also it seems everyone is making or buying these kits from someone on the .org....
I just wanted to let you know if you go to walmart's automotive area where they sell batteries(car) they sell terminal wires.

I bought a bunch of these and have been using them.
They have different gages; I picked up 4 and 6.

They seem to be really nice and the terminal ends are as professionally made as they can get!

I believe it's on the end of the tranny (kind of close to the battery)
