Default Earthing Systems

Hi guys,

I know alot of people on here don't believe in the benefits of an earthing systems.

But something you guys don't know is I make them. I would like to make one for the S2000 and in order for me to do that, I would need a volunteer to let me make some measurements in your engine bay. And for your trouble, I'll sell the first earthing system to the volunteer for cost.

Let me know if you are interested. What makes my earthing system differ from the rest is that I solder the ends for a secure longer lasting connection.

Click on "Hyper Ground System". They sell them for $150 USD...I sell them for a fraction of that and to the volunteer an even lower amount.

Hmm...nobody is interested

You don't have to buy an earthing system from me...that's optional, all I want is some measurements (shouldn't take more than 15 minutes).

Here is what you do, because this is the SAME thing... we had a big debate about it at Club RSX.

If you've got a lot of high quality speaker wire sitting around (12 gauge or better), just use that.

Yes...do what Koala says. But what I'm asking here is if I can take some measurements of your engine bay.

Ah forget it, I guess no one is interested if I make them or not.

Sorry man, I'd love to, its just that I've seen dyno's and they dont gain any measurable horsepower. However, I have also heard claims of a smoother power delivery... so maybe thats where they're worth doing.

It's not all about HP gain.

You get better response, smoother running engine, and the car starts easier.

I don't know how the S2K stock grounds are but on the B-series cars they are not the greatest.

Anyways, forget that I asked.

Grounds on the s2k's engine are nothing to write home about either. It would probably have the same sort of benefit as any other Honda.
