Yeah, I seen that link before. You get the HyperGround system, I'll get the Arospeed one and we'll compare ease of installation and end results. Sound like a plan?

 

You know, I think the Arospeed seems better. I'm going to ask FlamencoBlackJ30 from HS how he like his.

BTW, I've got a lot of things planned for my Accord, but until my dad lets me finish what I started, I'm stuck looking at all this, and not being able to buy and install anything. Having a joint account with the parents sucks

 

Ahh, he's got the Arospeed kit huh? I don't know why you'd be getting this kit, but i'm doing it not for hp gains(although i'll take any hp increases i can) but to hopefully help ease my disco light prob i haveh:

 

Dude you are honestly wasting your money if you buy one of those grounding kits...why you ask??? Because you can make your own grounding kit and it will be a cheaper..

I have done this myself, just went to my local audio shop and got some 4 guage power wire (this was blue in color) and spent about $40 bucks cdn with all the connectors...

This was more than enough to make a whole ground kit..what I grounded was the following:

VTEC Solonoid
Throttle Body
intake manifold
upgrade oem block ground and tranny ground
upgrade battery ground

And thats it, much more less then buyin one, just do it yourself

 

eh, $60. I bet I could spend close to that for the length and guage of wire needed, connectors, plastic sleeves(to cover the plastic part of the connectors), bolts, washers and battery post terminal and the fancy smancy ground dist block thingy. I wouldn't mind paying $60 for the Arospeed kit, but no way in hell would I pay $100 or more for the hyperground kit:nono:

 

I with you man. I'd rather make my own and add that little touch that I did it and you can get a little more custom when you do it your self. Your options are open more.

 

So which guage wire should I use? 4? 0?

I'll have to check out the local audio shops around here. $130 for 5 wires is ridiculous. The Arospeed seems nice too, but I think I can DIY for the same price, and do it exactly how I want.

I'm not expecting HP gains either. I just want everything to run smoother, and not want my lights to dim everytime I turn something on, such as the A/C.

 

I think 4 guage is too big, 8 should be just fine. And also, if I were to do the DIY, I'd solder on the connectors. So you should get the connectors w/o the plastic on the bottom of em so you can do that. And to make it look nice, you can get some heat shrink tubing and cut a 3/4" long piece to slide over the bottom of the connector and shrink it into place.

Speaking of dimming, when im idling and the fan kicks on, the lights dim Hopefully this can/will help make that a little less noticeable.

 

Just trying to figure out why you guys think that the stock grounding points are insufficient. Have you used an ohmmeter from the battery to the block/intake/transmission, etc., and found high resistance or are you using the monster cable (i.e. if it costs more it must be better) theory?

 

This is why
