I figured out how I am going to do my grounding. I will do a mini-write up after this week for the tC, once I get some info from mikochu.

I agree with both, but why does it slightly remedy that problem? Well, this is just a hypothesis, but could it be that since the transmission is electronically controlled that the voltage thing reduces lag, or since it provides a stable current so it doesn't have a sudden loss of power?... I don't know. Just wondering why it helps out that problem though. Anyone? This isn't just a feeling in the head, it actually is true. Im not the only one experiencing this.

Best thing to do to make sure the placebo affect isn't happening, is to have another person drive your car and ask them if they notice anything when they let go of the gas. Do this before and after you make changes to the GP's.
