Do you really expect a HP gain from ground wires? I did mine myself and saw no gain. Sure all the magazines say they give you 5whp or so, but they are paid to advertise products like crap!

About the only thing you might notice is brighter lights in you dash, headlights and tails. But if your altenator is half-assed, you'll probably see nothing!

You wont gain any HP from ground wires you ------- ricer, what you will notice is the car starts better when cold, crank faster, but that is about it.

anyway, one goes from your battery to your tranny, one then goes from your tranny to your intake manifold, from that one goes to your cyl head, from that one goes to yoru chassis, you also need one from your battery directly to the frame.

Oh, you need to Set your battery too, this can be done by taking a 21mm wrench and holdingit in the middle, then touch both battery terminals with the wrench, this should reset the plates inside your battery


Goodluck. :P

I just used a tire iron to reset my plates. Suppose anything metal would work fine.

Damn, I didn't know it was that easy. I always end up pulling my battery and using jumper cables in my bathtub when I do it.
