does grounding kits really improve throttle response? i've heard that installing grounding kits can give better power. I think that's true for older cars only with very corroded chassis...

No, won't improve throttle response.

Better power? Most likely the LOST power is being regained. You are right about the aged connections. But it works on new cars too. Those that doesn't has sufficient grounding in the factory setup - that's almost every japanese-base car.

I somehow doubt that grounding will provide any improvements in performance but I could be wrong. Even if it did, it'll be rather minimal. I would opt to think of installing grounding if it helps to stabilize or prolong the life span of anything that's electrical, or something like that.

Yes, you are particularly right. We have emphasized it for more than 1 time.

japanese based cars have poor grounding? what's the story behind that?

----> c-ground <------??

Anyway, we only do grounding cables. If you are looking for VS, you may want to try Votech or khguan's DIY.

c-ground is compatible to any VS since we can customize the layout for a specific car model.

In my own knowledge,
Volt Stabilizer is used to decrease fluctuation in electric current which mean more stable current flow.
Earth Cable is used to smoothen the flow of electric current...

Inside the VS there are big condenser that stores current for a short period of time then release it. i think this is how they control the fluctuation of the current...
