Upgrade Grounds

I'd like to upgrade my engine ground wires. What exactly do I need and where do I get it? Is there some kind of kit already for this?

Thanks,

Cablerat and loudubz have both made these kits in the past. I think they were asking $80 or $100 for it all.

You can use 1 or 2 gauge stereo cable or welding cable. For the connectors, you'll have to get stereo connectors if you want it to look good, or you can just get some ghetto setup from Canadian Tire bits.

Greddy I think also makes a ground kit. PM lordm or Astroboy for the name brand grounding kits.

nothing man

unless you want to prettifi your engine bay then go ahead but if your looking for an improvement its not worth it

best bet would to do a direct ground from the ecu to battery for clean noise free path
