Grounding kit
Well since im daily driving my sisters daewoo lanos because my Eclipse is in the ship (getting a new clutch and a Limited Slip Def.) so i decided to make a grounding kit for it. was rather easy i just got some old amp wire and found all the grounding points in the engine bay and grouned them better, i think the amp wire was 8 guage, was very nice, brighter headlighs, and better throttle responce, maybe a hp or 2. im oredering a Hyper grounding kit for my eclipse, 150 for that tho! expensive..... anyways thought i let you guys know. maybe pictures of it soon.

i will i will, but the engine is DIRTY, im going to clean it up then go to my friensd house and use his digital cam. i have to fix teh wires also, i did it ghetto style, its just wire under a screw type of thing, it still works, btw i would not go with 10 guage, and for 50 bucks, not worth it by any means. if your going to spend 50 bucks on a ebay earthing kit, just get this one:http://www.machv.com/pivsupeargro.html i know it says for eclipse, but get the uncut version and make it your self, it will show ALOT better results then ebay crap, sorry i dont like e-bay.

you may think its overpriced but thats the one im getting for my eclipse. because it one of the best out there and also because of the bling factor, it looks so NICE, my friend has it on his integra, wow its nice. but if you want a GOOD kit i would go for that.

Not only did I upgrade my gounds to 4ga and use soldered on gold ring terminals, I upgraded the battery positive to alternator cable to 4ga with gold terminals, too. The whole electrical system is MUCH better now, and only cost $12.35 total.
Here are pics of everything I did.

The only grounds that are necessary are:
1) Battery negative to body
2) Body to engine block
There are no other grounds that are necessary for better performance or better lighting or a stereo system.
The positive connection that is necessary is:
1) Battery positive to alternator positive output
In the car audio world, that is referred to as the "Magic 3" or "Big 3".
The cables are upgraded when putting a very large audio system or a lot of external equipment such as big flood lights or spot lights, such as needed at a construction site to light the work area.
