Have any instructions on how to make your own ground wire system for the integra, and where the exact spots to put them? i really don't want to spend 100 bucks for the suns automotive system, but if i can make it i'll might buy it.
i went to radio shack and the thickest wires were 8 gauge, is that okay or where do i find 4 gauge?
They do improve your car if you have better ground,(i did research) the stock car is ok, but you can improve the grounding of the engine better.

okay i went to Home Depot
4ft. of 8 gauge
3ft of 4 gauge wires.
some terminals for the price total 13 bucks.
I have finished constructing one 4 awg, and three 8 awg ground wires.
i just put in 4 gauge of wire on the valve cover to the chassis, leaving the stock one too. so there are two ground points on the cover.
so far that's the only one i put on, notice no change in power, but i think my radio sounds cleaner, but it could be my imagination.
I'll install 3 more wires whenever i can, but i just don't know where to put them yet.
