I agree with Kirby.

This new engines are already tricked from the factory. The real power adders are in electronics in contrast to the good old V8s that with changing a part you would get 10 horses. V8s where detuned for fuel economy and to meet emissions laws. our cars are very good in the hardware parts section. of course there are some parts that you can improve but not like the old school engines.

The other day I saw something that it sounded impossible to belive But the dynoes proved it.
I hang out with a few WRX and Supra Guys because, there are only 3 GTs here and they are used as grocery getters. But back to the topic, My friends where installing Hyper-grounds to their cars because they where worth from 2 to 5 horses.... I asked what the He** are those magical things. Those where thick ground wires that replace the factory ones at the engine. The idea is for better ignition power and better electronics performance. Like I said before at first it sounded stupid to think that a ground wire would increase HP but when I saw them in action, I was sold to the Idea. Now what has kept me from buying them is the sale price. $135.00 for a pice of wire? and also they are made up to the 2002 engine, maybe they would fit on ours but I won't pay 135.00 for testing.

The Porsche guys are talkin this up now too.... it sounds intrguing. Here is a mod that by all rights should create no controversy, and could add both HP and mileage. I would like to see some direct numbers on these ground wires!!!
