Do you have a kit? Just wondering what the comment is based on.

For dummies like me, what was the better throttle response? And in your opinion, would it be enough to justify someone buying them?

On a new car I would doubt that it would feel any different, unless you count placebo effect.

wat? What do you classify as a grounding kit? Like the other guy said a "grounding kit" wont help with handling.

Sorry... I stand corrected.... and in my mind I was thinking about a different part for the car. My fault. The grounding kit is suppose to increase HP ( releasing hidden hp from the stock setup) and improve shifting while keeping the engine more quiet

Already wasted haha Bought it a month ago and getting it installed tomorrow. I just read on a 350z forum that some people have noticed an improvement in smoother/quicker shifting and a quieter engine bay. Some say they can't tell a difference but under the hood looks prettier LOL

If I were to take a guess (and it's just a guess, so take it for what it's worth), the people who feel improvement are likely just imagining it. Not trying to knock them though, if I installed a performance part, I would probably imagine a performance increase that wasn't there as well.

I googled this, and I've been through probably 8 message boards at this point, no one has had any gains, and no one is recommending purchasing one except the people who sell them.
