I'm sure I'll get flamed for this but I'll have to disagree with many of you. Being an audio store we often install earthing kits and I have to tell you; 95% of cars we have put return dyno proven (although not noticable incar) improvement.

See the problem is not so much the massive factory earth cables, it's more the terminals. It's all well and good having 1/0AWG cables running everywhere but if they mounted to the chassis via a single small ring terminal you might find only limited electricity runs over that terminal joint. The earthing kits assist this.

Now I must admit it is bugger all of a power improvement (my own S15 got 2kw improvment but some cars get a lot more (the IS200/IS300 is famous for getting up to 7kw more). Shocked

For more imformation, see here. Smile
