Ground points included?
Vivid,
I'm looking to purchase, because that is a great price. My questions is, do the instructions include optimal grounding points and have you dynoed at different grounding points on a Lancer? With grounding wires, the spot that you ground them to makes all the difference. Thanks in advance.

The instructions do designate the best points on the car for installation. However we have not personally done that testing you suggest and would be a great idea. I will make note to the manufacturer and see if they can come up with some results.

if anyone wants to hear from someone other than the vendor, here goes...
upgrading the ground wires in a car is a good idea for many reasons. it decreases the amount of resistance in the wire allowing current to travel quicker and without losses. this gives quicker throttle response, spark, and quicker signal for communicating with your ecu. if you have a stereo, this can also help reduce or get rid of a "ground loop" which causes engine noise in your speakers if you have a poor amp install. it can also reduce the work your alternator has to do with the decrease in resistance, which makes for less hp loss by accessories. these are just a few.
i work at a stereo shop pt while finishing school and we see the benefits of a ground cable upgrade all the time. we always upgrade the tiny little 10awg ground in a honda civic to a 4awg!!! of course, you could always do it yourself with some 4awg and crimp end connectors, but soldered ends and a continuous line will be more beneficial than the diy.
just my .02 though!!
