Lineage kit v. hyper kit

I have been hearing good things about the hyper kit. It has been praised by importtuner. Also a buddy of mine told me about lineage kit also. He said that there also a pretty good kit. They also have the ends soldered and not crimped. I was wondering if anyone here has any of these kits.

I've had the pleasure of watching a rep from Lineage install a kit at Vivid Racing last year. They really believe in their products and have done some testing to ensure quality. I've also heard good things about the Hyper kit, but my vote goes towards the company that went out of its way to drive out to a shop and show us all how to install their products.

Gold for sure. Platinum is not that good of a conductor (compared to other metals). I believe the best conductor out there is Silver, then Copper, then Gold, then Aluminum. and etc. The difference in conductivity of silver and copper is not too different but the difference between copper and gold is somewhat significant.

You won't feel the difference tho.

Actually, I don't recommend any ground kit at the moment, since I've yet to see any dyno results. But I must say the Lineage kit used to be over $100, so at least it's down to a decent price now. If I could see exactly what it does for the Lancer (Evo and WRX results don't mean jack to me, since it's a completely different car and electrical system) I would buy it from Vivid for sure.

Platium is a better conductor than gold, silver, and copper.... Grade 12 chemistry told me this...
