direct fuse box grounds
#281
Yah, I checked coil packs and replaced plugs but I'm not overly worried about it, it's really not that bad. I never thought my system was causing it either.
My main concern was just the dimming lights when the subs hit, and basically just wanting to ground my car as well as possible, the right way. I was planning on buying the grounding kit available in the classifieds, would this accomplish what I am trying to do? No offense to the seller, I just hate asking the person who wants to sell me the product if it will work for me, the answer is almost always yes, even if it should have been something else.

Bypassing the alternator fuse by adding a power wire from the alternator to the battery is a TERRIBLE and dangerous idea. You need to remove that immediately before it causes a massive amount of damage. Nobody is saying grounding is a bad idea and doesnt work. THE LOCATION OF YOUR GROUNDS is a bad and dangerous idea, yes it works but its NOT SAFE.
you stupid **** listen to what you are being told stop just saying "it works so im not wrong".

I hope to GOD that your "aviation" handle refers to the fact that you get high, and has absolutely nothing to do with being a pilot. Because I think if America knew they had folks like you actually in charge of anything aerospace related, our entire system would have to be shut down for its own protection.

At this point it is clear Aviation has won the battle. He's been clear he isn't listening and is enjoying screwing with everyone. Further replies and attempts to help this guy are an act of insanity.

correct. when my electrical system is how i want it, im going to either seal or paint the connections

Are you saying you want to bypass the alternator fuse by adding a power wire from the battery to the alternator, and then add a fuse in said power wire????????

I'll make this simple for you. Ready?
Your crappy lights were, to you, a baseline of performance. Doing what you did helped. But your "baseline performance" is what is known as SH!TTY GROUNDING!!! And that's POOR PERFORMANCE to the rest of us.
Now, your car is acting a lot better...so to you, that's a huge performance gain. But to us it's called NORMAL. Your grounding situation was sh!tty to begin with.
Welcome to normal.

the reason i added a positive is because the stock wire is not the greatest and has less current flow and more resistance. i saw a noticable improvement adding this wire. i am going to fuse it and rout the wire a safe route
#316
this would be the control in my experiment, a totally stock electrical system, perfectly grounded, no corrosion
my bright dash lights are a direct affect of adding wires, not restoring lost potential
#320
and the thicker/shorter your battery-to-body "main ground" is, the better... let the car's body do the work, not your wiring.
