Grounding systems?

Hey guys,

Does anyone have either the Sun Automotive Cyber Speed or HKS Circle Earth grounding systems in their car? What do you guys think of these systems? Would you recommend one over the other?

Thanks!

3. if you realllllly wanted to, just buy your own wire from a car stereo place and make your own for a fraction of the cost.

IMO,more of an engine dress up then performance upgrade....

works better on old cars than new cars. (old cars usualy have bad grounding, so upgrading grounding on old cars would make the most difference)

^^^i learned this by using the search button

i have the sun hyper ground system. no difference in perfomance. got it for $50 so i dont care, lol.

I have been reading/hearing mixed reports on grounding systems. There are the ones whos say the grounding system have made an improvement on how the car runs. Then there are the ones who say it did nothing.

I myself have been wondering about them, I spoke with Ryan about them. He has a Sun Auto Hyper Voltage System in his S2k, he said it made a difference in how well the his car ran.

Subarus aren't grounded well. I've had a sun kit on my 2 subarus. I saw minor changes, for the better, The head lights didn't fade when I hit the power windows and the idle was a little smoother...that's about it.

DIY here ( like $15, and some skin off my knucles...that firewall ground is hard to reach). I saw 3-4 mpg improvement. That's about it.
