Engine Grounding, WHICH IS BEST?
I am interested in purchasing an engine grounding kit but it seems there are too many out there to choose from. Can someone here recommend a good kit and why you recommend it? Thanks.

Useless, so I should not purchase? Why are they useless? From what I have read (even here on this forum) they are a a needed item to aid in engine smoothing.

I have read that the earth is not round, it is shaped like a burrito. This is from a well known and respected author, Berke Breathed. Since he is so well known and respected, he must be telling the truth.

Honestly they are not 'needed' Any effect that you feel from these kits is merely a placebo anyway. They work in theory though. I think Import tuner may have measured a 2HP gain from grounding--but I don't necessarily believe that.

Think about it. 2HP is less than the margin of error for chassis dyno. If they lost 2HP, they'd just run it again until the margin of error turned the other way. In other words, no change. On the other hand, some of them look kinda cool...

I got the Apexi Super Ground System and it serves as a great conversation piece. I didn't expect it to do any good but I allow myself a guilty pleasure from time to time. As has been said, don't waste your money on a ground system especially when you consider that there are other mods more worth the money and that info is all over this website.
