grounding kits

Some time back there was a VERY long thread discussing electrical grounding kits and the alleged benefits. I tried searching on "hyper groud" and the like but couldn't find it.

There was an interesting article in a car audio mag (link attached) that tested the manufacturer's claimed benefits. While the test vehicle was a (shudder) Volvo wagon, the dyno results and the author's subjective evaluation would appear to support the product claims.

If anyone has the link to the thread, or a better search criteria, I would appreciate it. I was also wondering if anyone had tried this process on their ML. I'm interested in the grounding points that might be most beneficial.

Thanks!

RE: grounding kits

I still place it in the realm of fart cans and intakes, but here you go:

If I ever get the time and energy I may get some heat-resistent wire and do my truck just for looks, but those two resources are at a premium!
