grounding

I don't understand how grounding you car better will give you added horsepower. Someone please explain.

RX7's are notorious for bad grounds. I lost alot of power this way. The car will actually hesitate and break up. It fealt like it was missing. I installed the Hyperground system and it worked great. You don't actually "gain" horspower, you just get it back.

That hyper ground system, do they actually show you where and what to ground, or should you just assume that?

They tell you as well as replacing the stock ones.

I thought there weren't any FD kits and only generic ones?

Are they premade strips or do you cut the lengths? If they are premade and generic length, do you have to cut some of them anyhow?

Go to NAPA or equivalent place and make your own, it's way cheaper if you don't need the BLING BLING of a distribution block and such.

I have the Hyperground product on my FD. If you guys don't have a clue where to install the parts, I'll send you some pics of my engine bay. It's a great mod and very cheap.

Ernie...I just noticed your post, I thought you weren't around here anymore. It's good to see you on, I'll send you an IM soon.
