activetuning grounding wires

1cool_titan · 09-11-2005, 04:18 PM

this is my first post and glad to be here. Just installed the wires (blue) and have to admit that I do feel a difference in the titan

not a huge gain but I can screech the tires easy and smoother shifts and idle. too soon to tell about mileage gain. A cheap upgrade that works

funny, because several others have posted that they did this CHEAP upgrade and did not feel any difference whatsoever. matter of fact one member noticed the tick initially that he had, disappeared, but has returned again. not worth the 39 or 49 bucks that everyone's paid so far. arkman0's ground fix is still the best! and his fix costs less than 10 dollars!!

worked for me as far as the smoother shifting and overall better initial response/and idle

so although its cheap Id say its worthy just IMO

id recommend it , although you can easily buy some wire, some terminals and follow the directions on the site

I used 1/0 ga personally

same as smoke. Shifts smoother then a lexus now.

Same here, slightly better shifts. My engine "tick" has not returned so far. I'm not disappointed in the least.

I hear ya Tortuga but it worked for me

I got the Idea to get the activetunning kit from all the positive post on TITAN TALK! go figuire??? I've done CAI and BANKS exhaust upgrades but untill they come out with (an affordable) plug and play chip(unichip too expensive), it was the next best upgrade IMO. anyone else have any upgrade ideas 'cause i'm still waiting on JET to come out with a plug n play chip.

I noticed an increase in the intensity of my headlights.

An easy upgrade that I think is worth it.

I did this with Mil-Spec M22759/43-2 aircraft wire. Nothing changed for me. Did not cost anything, just my time.

Did anyone see activetuning's Titan grille? http://www.activetuning.com/products...NI-TN-04XGRIL/

Hideous is the first word that comes to mind, of course that's just MHO.

Yeah, it's unique, for sure, but definately not my cup of tea.

If you like that grill, you might like the plastic clad bull bar for the Avalanche.

You can make up your own kit with good amp cable for like $15 in parts. Anybody have a detailed pic of the ground points used by active tuning so I can make my own?

I thought about doing my own, but for the time spent picking up supplies and making up the wires, the $39/shipped (group buy) was more than worth it to me.
