RE: hyperground cables
I have been installing for over 10yrs and have no idea what you are talking about?? If it is just a brand of cable then there is no difference in the install. If it is some "special" ground cable then I think you are dealing with some snake oil......

RE: hyperground cables
oh its just some audio power wire.extra grounds will help in some cases like grounding the alt to the body/frame and motor,motor to body/frame ..ect.It will probally be cheaper if you just go to your local car audio store and buy some wire/rings and make them yourself

RE: hyperground cables
this what you mean?

for that price I see why they are called HYP-erground cables!!!!!!!!
Unless these are made out of PURE gold I don't see how they justify the price.
From what I gather these are just pre-made way of doing a big-3 upgrade? There should be one to go from the neg of the battery to the chassis, as well as a set + and - from the battery to the alt. This is always a good idea if you have a high power system as most stock ground use 8 awg, as well as 8 awg from the battery to alt. If you run a 4 awg cable for pwr and ground, and the stock ground is only 8 awg, you are limiting your system.....

yeah that's it. you can just go to any car audio store and pick up bigger ground wires. like $5. it really does help make everything run smoother. i've had them lying around forever and just want to get them hooked up.

RE: hyperground cables
What about battery cables? I saw a couple cars that replaced their stock battery cables with 1 or 4 gauge wire with the aftermarket terminals an everything does that make a big difference??? an wat is the largest gauge you can use?
