Ground kit installed

i bought one of the cheaper kits off ebay... i figured it was only wire...(hopefully not a mistake) anywho installation was not hard at all took about 30-45 minutes working at a relaxed pace. Not much of a difference other than the starting (starts a lot easier). after looking at the stock ground wire it was no wonder i was having trouble starting it before. pics below

Congrats, you now have less money in your pocket and your "seat of the pants" tells you your car runs better. I just can't wait until those dumb engineers at the auto companies learn about electricity and how to make it work correctly in an automobile when it is built, so we all don't have to add extra wire to them.

youre so right i mean those engineers know so much ...they managed to leave 25 hp bhind from simple headers,8-15 from a cold air intake 7-10 from a/f/timing tunning....and those are just a few of the basics they were so inept at...fact is grounding kits work...its small but its there

if you were to actually take your head out of your ass and actually read what he wrote... he said "Not much of a difference other than the starting (starts a lot easier)."
