Thx, but that artiocle and magazine's integrity have been seriously questioned, and I read the "test" and its protocol and the controls were poor.
Not worth going into all that again here - if you are interested, check out those other threads.

So if i did want to mount wires, what would i ground off? The engine block, alternator, Head, Transmission, body. I am not sure what to ground and i don't want to blow anything up??

I installed a set of ground and if someone told me to remove them and here is your 20 bucks back I wouldn't. I found noticeable differences with and without the system installed. Stereo noise and many other issues were removed. So start with the battery and work your way down the list. The only place I didn't get to was the tranny. Enjoy and the install is farely easy with no headaches.

I grounded out the Block, Head, battery, alternator, and I ran one ground to the headlight grounding point.

I guess I don't understand the argument here.

If you want an 'earthing kit' on your car, buy it and install it. If you know how to install it, help the guy who started this thread out.

If you don't want one, keep your money in your wallet. But don't worry about how others choose to spend their money, unless it's hurting you somehow.

My desire to prevent unnecesary expense by others is based in altruism. Though it does not hurt me directly, I do think that many people are hurting themselves by spending unnecessary money and wasting their time on unneeded installations. That does bother me. Also, humans being the social creatures that we are, tend to copy others behavior. So if RR and I choose to debunk non-beneficial aftermarket items, I think we're benefitting those that may have otherwise purchased these systems were it not for a rational explanation of how they function.

It doesn't matter to me how anyone chooses to spend their money, but this is a public forum where we are all free to express ourselves.

RR

Although I respect and welcome your vast car knowledge, your approach to "helping" others could use a little better bed side manners.

once again I appreciate those who have helped, what i would appreciate more is if those who wish to express more of your anti ground kits opinions would start a new thread so that I can find the help I need...I just wanted to know what I would need to do to fit the Spoon kit to the OEM battery.....you are free to say what you want, but I get your point, you think it's a waste of money..fine/whatever.....now can we get back to the purpose of this thread...thanx

Surely "Spoon" provided instructions with the kit?

Or are they ebay cables with "Spoon" printed on them. You know only the genuine "Spoon" product has a super extreme horsepower boost.

I just ordered them the other day and have not received them yet...I simply wanted to have a heads up with the kit vs waiting until I had them.....it's of those sicknesses that come along with modding the car-you can't wait to install once you get it
