Lot Usa grounding kit

Anybody every try this yet. www.lot-usa.com They sell a grounding kit called the direct power system. I remember the test in a mag and they picked up 12 whp on a subi on a dyno. Also they make a kit for the rotary engine specific.

not sure about the product, however most grounding kits all do the same thing, your just paying for the name brands when you can find cheap ones exactly like em on ebay.

A grounding kit isn't going to **** for your car unless it has a problem that should be solved by fixing the car properly. A good running car will get NOTHING from something like this.

I guess the theory of a grouding kit makes sense. I don't really know much about them. Ebay seems to be the place for a lot of knock offs, which doesn't bother me all that much if the product does what it's supposed too.

That's not necessarily true. It's a known fact that the FD has poor grounding. Of course you shouldn't be doing this as a means to fix anything wrong with your car, but on a well running car I would imagine it would make it feel a little more responsive if anything.

id personnaly just go down to home depot and get some nice 2-4 gauge wiring as well as some connectors and start making some cables. there is nothing special at all about their wiring! as long as you get good contact, it will be the exact same thing as if you had bought their expensive kits.

nice write up

id like to know how you dont melt the plastic on the connector though, i always make mines go up in flames haha do you think it could be perhaps because im using 2/0 gauge instead of 4 gauge?
