Do grounding wire kit really works???

[skyline2m]

Do the grounding wire that we buy at the shop (cost more than RM50) really works??
Anyone here has positive feedback after installing it???

 

[zendengoh]

sure it works, but the most importance is the mount point have to be correct, otherwise its just for decorate only.

Where is the best place to do grounding?Isnt that any part of the car body?By just using bolt to mount it

 

[zendengoh]

Here are some recommended grounding points.

Alternator bracket
Radiator mounts
ECM/ECU if it’s under the hood
Strut towers
Throttle Body
Engine Block
Fuel rail bracket
Firewall

There are, of course, other places to mount to but you need to determine these for your particular car.

Old car yes, proton yes.....

New car, not really.....Coz they are well-designed..... maybe 0.01% improvement...

Yup, can improve fuel save consumption what i feel on my car now,for me any wiring with brand or not and how cost u install all same on funtionally,remember always check your battery water level, also i agree with zendengoh on comment.

I drive a satria and personally, I feel that grounding is... crap to me. But others are free to try it out. hehe

Grounding, is imagination only.......It only applies one ppl who are too free in the weekends, too much money to waste.

Why ? Coz I use bfore.....Maybe it does help, maybe 3%.....which is useless...

Good post here.....
FYI,
1) Grounding cables is for those who want their ICE sounds better... kinda works (no.1 factor rust/dirt betweed body part to body part!)
- I think, 1% effective... for Old cars
- New... no differents coz with no rust!!!
2) Fuel save.... CRAP....
3) Car idling, better for 0.01%
- improvement for false signals to ECU due to Car's electrical systems.

The topic is talking about additional grounding, stick topic plz.

hi,

its good for ICE expecially u r runing on amplifier,which ur amp ground is connected at cabin/internal part...causing resistance high for current to flow, creating noise.

old car is more effective as stock grounding is no longer performing well.....

fuel save....yes for poor stock grounding efi car normally.

idling improved....correct
