Just Finished Grounding KIt YES and YEs

Ok I do this to all my cars and yes it is effective. Definitely on this car since it only has 1 main ground from the battery. 1St. idles very smooth now, 2nd throttle response is superb, and pulls very easily through power band. Pics coming tonite or tomorrow
*UPDATED with pics*

You will see my thought of the grounding kits on my post at http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1334...

My Apexi grounding kit was taken off my STI after I sold the car...you can pick up this Ground Kit including the Battery Stablizer on Ebay easily...but if you only want to ground ur car, then better just source the grounding wires either from Home depot or some Audio shops and then DIY it...Since the grounding wires are same as the Amp/Sub wires...
