At a strip club and reading about throttle lag? No offense...but I'm guessing you have a little "throttle lag" yourself...

I hate to be the "rational guy" but a grounding kit is like taking a sugar pill. All modern cars have more of delay than you're used to. It's not because they aren't grounded correctly.

So what does that mean ?
Are you saying a grounding kit is bad for the car ?

I just got the uprev tune and the throttle lag is significantly less since they're customizing the way the car responds to input, your gas pedal, as well as tuning the vehicle to output the best with your mods by edjusting timing or whatever.

Not that a grouding kit is bad but its not gonna really help this issue as much, IMO. Grouding kits are nice but it can't change how your computer reacts to a electronic signal, although it couldn't hurt the efficiency of the signal, black betty could describe the benefit better

No they aren't bad, but to think that modern cars aren't grounded correctly and a $20 of wire is going to do something is a little silly.

The lag as nothing to do with being grounded (if you think about it the car is a floating ground because it's not grounded to the "Ground"). And people who think the can tell their car is "smoother" from them are also being generous in the reply. If you're car "cammed" like it was miss firing maybe, but people tend to justify what they bought more than being honest. I had a grounding kit on a 305Z..it made no difference. I had an argument with "grounding wire people" that the brand on the wire made a difference...like 14v DC knows it's riding on name brand Chinese wire.

Buy it, if you feel like it fixed something it technically works...but sugar pills work too.

Out of curiosity, is there less lag with the 6MT or is it the same?

It's the same. Very annoying. Throttle to the ground and wait like there's a turbo spoiling up.

Thanks for the site, although I might just build my own since I have lots of wiring at work. Is there a noticeable difference in between the 8 and 4 GA?

Greetings MYG37 Forum, We at Sprint Booster USA would like to invite everyone who is experiencing a throttle lag to try out product. There has been misinformation floating around about how our product actually works. The truth is, no one knows throttle response better than us. We developed and patented this plug and play throttle enhancement to give you a better sense of control when it comes to your throttle. Only Sprint Booster continuously analysis your inputs (pedal) and provides a signal to your ecu that is more in line with the throttle response you truly want and demand.

Feel free to try our product and if you do not like it we will return you in full. You have 30 days to decide. If for what ever reason your not blown away, send it back. Its that simple. Since Oct. 2010, the Nissan 350Z/G35 and 370/G37 have been our fastest growing segment. If you have any questions, or you have a technical question you want answered, please feel free to email us at info@sprintboosterusa.com or send us a PM message.

I'm with this guy. Grounding wires are the latest and greatest car scam. The same people who buy this stuff are same guys who pay $200 for a 6' hdmi cable that Monster paid $6 to make, then swear it's 10x better than what they had even though there's no difference.

If you just have to have a grounding kit, go buy some 3' of zero gauge wire and some connectors. Probably cost less than $15.
