Is this a quality voltage system and grounding kit?

I want to do the voltage system and grounding kit mod, but I want the right kits for my car. I found this on ebay. Is this kit ok or should I stick with brands like the Sun or Buddy Club?

That's quite cheap for both a voltage stablizer and grounding kit. I think voltage stablizer runs around $200 and grounding kit is $100. Might check if this is legit. Other than that, it looks ok for me. See what others say.

I would not touch the regulator, stick with Sun or Buddy club. As far as the grounding kit goes you can go to a battery supply house and purchase pre-made cables in various lengths to meet your needs. I used the Sun regulator wich allows the grounding kit to be wired directly to it and purchased all the cables seperately for like 20 bucks.

Thanks for the advice so far. Has anyone ever tried the APEX Super Ground System? I know a local shop that sells it for $239. The shop called their distributor and said the Apex is just as good as the Sun product. He also said the Apex can both stabilize and ground. Any comments?

Where did you purchase it? Do it have both voltage stabilizer and grounding capabilities? Does it work well for you? Just trying to get some feed back on the best product to get? Thanks!
