Lights are brighter."....the350z.com forum


I'm not so much wanting performance upgrades.....but it will also improve the sound quality on the stock radio...but want it for my new radio (when I'm able to buy it). Other than that..if the kit doesn't do anything..screw it.....I'll have some red under the hood and be a hundred bucks short. Sh*t happens..I can deal with it...been through worse.

its supposed to help out with all electric current flow and even it out and make it more consistent flow. I don't think its a must have but if you want one and got the money go for it. I'd rather put it else where but that is my opinion. the manufacturer should have all information on what it is for.
Cheers

My thoughts exactly. (Although, I'm sometimes guilty of doing that.) You have to do it with descretion.

Getting back to your question.... you will notice better throttle response with the gounding kit. Beyond that, you probably won't notice much else.


EDIT: BTW, I got mine for basically free. I used Stillen Bucks back when they had their Father's Day promo. (I earned them with the purchase of my exhaust and intakes and sways.)
