did you notice any reduction in the lag of the car after? (i mean did this ground system help the load on your alternator noticeably)??

yes. there is a reduction in lag. not a huge one but a noticeable one. i have to note though, i havent installed the one ground that goes to the alternator. im going to do that one tommorrow.

its worth it, i noticed a difference. its not just the ground system but the volt stabilizer box. granted just doing the ground system will show gains, the whole thing of course would help more. or can you make your own stabilizer thingy too?

I'd like everyone to note that there was practicly no difference in the readings on my DIY between installing the ground cables after the voltage stabilizer.

They do LOOK good though.
