I remember j9fd3s saying there was a ground on the rear rotor housing that came loose from the factory. I searched for this ground to no avail. I think I found where it was supposed to go. anyway, I added a ground from the rear endplate to the firewall, and it feel like I picked up 10 hp in the upper rpms.

The hesitation is almost completely gone as well. Before, the car would sputter and sound like the revlimiter at 3500rpm, now its down to a barely noticable drop in power.

In conclusion... new grounds = more gooder.

10hp, that would be nice just for grounding.

to be honest, i added 2 new grounds but didn't pick up anything

i think it depends on the condition of the existing grounds and the charging system
