turbo would be a whole world of trouble unless you're spending 1000's. Is it 16v or 8v ?

a grounding kit :
What benefits does it provide?
Faster engine start-up
More stable idling
Smoother and faster throttle response
Increase low & middle engine torque
Better milage
Better CPU operation
Cleaner exhaust gas
Brighter headlight output
Improve car audio sound quality, power windows, power sunroof, etc.

Big thick wires to replace the shitty thin grounds on the existing engine
