Hyper Voltage Gt? vs Grouding Wires

Hey guys, i was searching for some parts n i passed through these..
Is this true or jst a BS thing to trick us?

Whats with the hyper Volatege GT? > $224.99
http://www.racinglab.com/hyper-volta...initi-003.html
^ they claimed a 12.8Hp/10.5ft/lb Gain on a lancer evo with a dyno graph

N whats the difference between It n those grouding Wires from same company > $109.95
http://www.racinglab.com/hyper-groun...initi-003.html

And what about this Fuel regulators

The grounding kit really helps with AT G37's. It helps out the transmission and allows it to shift much smoother and better. It is also suppose to help with Audio and other things. It is also capable of getting your car a couple HP/TQ but nothing you would notice. The more expensive grounding kit is suppose to be better material from what I hear. If you have an AT G37 then get a kit. I have a MT and I am thinking about it although the benefits won't be as noticeable.

Yea, But would a different In material Costs Double + n that numbers of gains? i knw about the reguler grouding wires as i read in this forum.. But the more expensive is confusing, i mean if it even gives 5hp that would be great comparing to the non noticed gains in the reguler one, yea?

and what about the fuel regulator? anyone knw anything abt it?

Well Malhas-, check out the Modding411 section on the grounding kit. We have the Stillen and GroundingGear grounding kits which are both cheaper then the first kit. I am not sure why the first kit is so expensive. It doesn't even give wire gauge info.

The fuel regulator I am not sure on. That will have to be answered by someone with some experience in this section.

Find yourself the cheapest grounding wire kit you can that uses 4 or even 8 gauge wire and that's all you need. The higher prices, gadgets and gizmos, and marketing hype of better performance is all BS. People are charging exhorbitant prices because most people don't know that it's just some copper wire cut to fit certain lengths. That's all. Save your money for real mods.
As regards the claim of 12.HP and 10.5 TQ that is 100% and I personally wouldn't buy any product from that manufacturer for lying to me and thinking I'm stupid enough to believe such an absurd claim. Plus that last product, the "Hyper Gauss Fuel Regulator Enhancer" is bogus. It's only a magnet (if that) and will do absolutely nothing for the performance of your vehicle. They just get unsuspecting tools and kids who don't know any better to buy this crap becasue it has Japanese writing on the package so it must be "JDM" and therefore super cool and will really make your car perfrom better. Garbage.

I have to be honest, I will eventually make one for Betty because there's no way in hell I'm giving these theives $200+ for some 8 GA copper wire. That's just ridiculous. The question is when will I get around to it. I hope to by the end of the month but there's no guarantee I woun't get lazy and put it off even longer. I have a 6MT so the greatest gain form it (smoother, quicker transmission shifts) is wasted on me. But once I do it, I'll post a DIY so that you can make one too.

The Stillen grounding kit on my 5AT seemed to smooth the car out a bit, almost like a good tuning tweak. I didn't recognize a power gain but I'm glad a bought the kit.
