I have to say it.... install it in your closet, it will get you the same effect :D

Other than that, use the instructions squall mentioned.

not bad considering what? poorly spent funds? heh.

I've said it before. You would get more benefit from getting little sheets of linen and plastic (light weight lolz) sticks and making some sails on top of your car than you would from a grounding kit.

I got the same kit. useless. I put it on and took it back off the same week. the distribution block doesn't even fit under the hood properly. last time i'll buy anything for the tC on ebay. I'd rather spend the money doing LED swaps.

contrary to half of the people in this forum, grounding kits do work. You wont have better throttle response or HP gains, but your car's electrical ground will be much more solid. A good example is, my lights dont dim when I blast my eD setup anymore. Grounding kit = big 3 upgrade

Yea, the big 3.

1. Grounding Kits

2. Turbonator

3. Performance Chip






laff.



I'll grant they can be useful for rather extensive audio setups, but anywhere else, you'd be better off just lighting your money on fire. At least then you get a good show out of it.
