Default Grounding Kit

I just read the article in the Tech section on the grounding kit install. What the deal here?? I never heard of supposedly getting more power from some large gauge wires placed here and there ??

Default I hope this helps. . .

The whole idea is that the current ground in the car is sufficient to run the car. However there is still a little "slop" when it comes to electricity. Almost everything in cars now use electricity. The theory is if you can get rid of the electrical slop then anything connected to the electrical system will work better. Some of these things include: ECM (cars computer), sensors, audio. ..ect.

I guess it's like a tv with old rabbit ears. Adding tin foil always seemed to make it better. I dunno if it helps but check this post

might help might not.
