Grounding Kits

Grounding Kits
As there are many companies that carry grounding kits for cars in general, do you think it will have a positive effect on the 2IS since it has so many electronics?
I saw this on my.is, and wondered if anybody purchased it, and had any opinions on it.
It states on the site:
- Faster engine start-up - You can feel the difference even with A/C on and at maximum fan speed. This system reduces the loss of electricity to nearly zero at ignition coil and produces better ignition spark.
- Stable idling - A smoother engine idle and decrease in idle interior cabin noise.
- Improved Throttle Response - Minimizes delays in throttle response.
- Improved Shifting - Auto Tranny cars will feel a much smoother, faster, and crisper shifts.
- Increase In Low -> Mid Engine Torque - Achieve an improved combustion at low or high revolution of engine, which results in increased acceleration.
Thoughts? Would this be a good purchase?

I have put them on my RX, but first step would be getting a more powerful aftermarket battery, then something like a Sun Hypervoltage system and then grounding wires. I have all 3 things on my RX.

I had them on both my G35's. I noticed a difference in the AT sedan with much smoother shifting. I didn't notice anything on my MT coupe.
Some say (obviously) it's snake oil but when I took the kit out of my sedan (when I sold it after I bought the coupe), my g/f could even tell there was a difference even though she didn't know what a grounding kit is and that I had taken it out.
There was a big thread on one of the g35 forums between a supplier v. skeptic. Both put their $ where their mouth's were and the skeptic ended up purchasing a set (willingly) after they did some independent dyno testing.

One thing I wonder with the voltage stablizer is that your giving your dealer a big opening to void your warranty if anything electrically related happens to your car.
Its just something to consider.

I'd want to up grade the Grounding Wires, Get an Optima Battery, Denso Iridium plugs, and maybe get some stuff from http://www.okadaprojects.com/usa/home.htm if they come out with the coil packs or distributor
