Default Grounding Kit

How many people out there use the grounding kit? I just got mine yesterday, i didn't notice a difference at all. But it was something for me to do for about 20 minutes.

Did you reset the ECU and shake a chicken over the rear strut bar?

I put one on the Evo and the car seems to run smoother. Maybe it's just me, but it was worth the $40.

I'm one of the clueless. What exactly is this supposed to do? I've read that it'll give the car more power, but how? Is this easy to install? Where do the wires connect to or what wires do they replace?

When I put mine on, I didn't notice an immediate difference. When I took them off to have the wires covered with mylar braids, I immediately noticed the car didn't run near as smooth, they are a good mod in my book.

Supposed to smooth out idle and increase throttle response. I wouldn't expect any more power from them though. As for install, should only take about an hour or so.
