hmm.......put it on a dyno and do 3 pulls grounded, 3 pulls ungrounded/floating (make sure no continuity from chasis to MBC) and let us know your findings

I don't even know wtf you're talking about. I just left mine plugged in, and capped off the 2 nipples. Set it up like that.

No, the MBC does not need to be grounded.

The stock controller is plugged in only so you don't get a cel. Otherwise, it's not hooked up to anything.
