If any of you have a turbo timer that can read out volts digitally, start flipping on different electrical components in the car while it is running and you will see the volts jump all over the place from about 15 down to 12 and so forth. With the ground kit installed on my car I started flipping on the lights, radio, dome lights, etc. and the volts stayed between 14.8-14.2. Never dynoed it before and after so I couldn't tell ya about power gains which personally I don't believe there is any, but I believe it will definately smooth out your Dyno graph.
