Default Installing z327 ground kit on my stillen SC'd vq35 - help!

I'm outside right now attempting to put my new grounding kit on my z, but since I have the stillen supercharger that sits on top where the intake manifold used to be, I have no idea where to connect everything. The pictures show lots of stuff that isn't under my hood!! Anyone installed a ground kit on a stillen sc'd car? Thanks!!!

Just sell it ... it won't actually do anything for you other than put some random-soon-to-be-tarnished wires under your hood. Except in this case, it won't look like everyone else's since you are going to have to grab random points on the engine to ground it.

+1^. at best, its useless. at worst, could decrease hp or mess with your electronics.

Connect it to the ground coming out of the wiring loom near the front of the SC on the passenger side of the motor.

So it won't give me the same benefits that it would give to someone who isn't supercharged? Or are you two some of the "non-believers" in grounding kits in general? Ive never had one on a vehicle before.

It will give you exactly the same performance benefit as NA - nothing. I had that kit on my G35 on didn't even bother swapping it over to my Z. Its just sitting in the garage collecting dust.
