Friend was trying to find grounding points in the front engine bay on my 325i and really couldn't find it. Anyone got any pics or know where grounding points would be? Need about 5-8 points if possible. thanks

any place on the frame is a good ground. Why do you need so many?

Most of the unpainted metal works. If you see an unpainted bolt/nut it'll usually work too.

well, he has some thick wires and we're trying to make a ground wire system for my e46, we looked around today, but didn't really find any points, since most of my 325i has covers over everything. thus we were looking for points that had a bolt, nut, etc...

I got Hyperground ground wires for my Maxima, some people dynoed and got some +hp, butt dyno seems a little faster, but I haven't got any dynos myself before and after, but I do notice that the audio system doesn't fade out any when starting up the car, etc. Basically, the mod can do no harm, but I'm not gonna claim +5hp or anything. hmm, apparently not that much info out there on them, even on google.

anyways, here is a set for $110, definitely not worth THAT much imo, I paid that much maybe 5 months ago or so...

I don't know of 5-8 specific grouning points...but any exposed metal on the frame will work.

Specifically, there is a factor grounding point behind the passenger side front corner lense. There should be a black plastic harness with a bunch of brown wire grounded to a bolt on the body of the car behind the corner lense.

Good Luck.

I posted a couple of times on this, maybe now people will get interested in this mod.
