Ground systems can be very effective it depends on how well your engine is grounded to begin with. An Apex unit dynoed a 9whp increase through their grounding system.

how does ground wires increase hp? i understand stabilizing voltage and have a better overall electrical circuit throughout the car, but how horsepower? i have an extra 6ft of 4 awg wire from my stereo install, would that be enough?

i remember old hot rodes having problems with there ground. The rusty metal made for horrible connections.
In most cases, it will not increase performance. |
