Why doesn't anyone ever mention these...

Why doesn't anyone ever talk about the Hyper Ground System? Is it because the Prelude already has fairly good grounding points or no one wants to take the time to adjust them on a dyno? Well anyways, i have a 4th gen (Si) and was wondering if anyone has used these, and what the best grounding points are. Thanks for any help.

The grounding kits are a rip off. They fool you with their advertising.
Just like the tornato and nology hotwires etc.

I'm not trying to sound like someone who believes everything that magazines say, but import tuner seems to prove that they can produce noticeable results in their "power pages" with dyno charts.

Re: Why doesn't anyone ever mention these...

I read that article.. Had a gain of what was it.. 3hp and 0.9tq on a 300zxTT that they dynoed in 8 degree cooler weather? You'll probably see 1/8th of that kind of gain in a prelude.

Hardly worth a 240 dollar part.. Not to mention Apex'i makes some of the best electronic parts; the performance of which you probably wont find anywhere else. I doubt that there's a cheap alternative that'll give you those kinds of gains.

Good engine dress up though, if you are into that sort of thing.
