Default Ground wire kit

Anyone have the ground wire kit from newscionparts.com? Just wondering if it as worth it and I personally have not had much experience with this type of product. However I do think I remember hearing something about it helping performance wise somehow? Anyone know about this?

It will help performance if you can find a better place to for a ground. That would only be found out by mounting, dyno, remounting, dyno and so forth and so forth..hmm only time will tell..

I just got my ground wire kit and I need a little help as to where to run the wires to. I have the little diagram but does anyone have any pics of the ground wires on their xB? I'd like to see where they go. Thanks.
