does anybody know if the new hyperground wires work well with the contique family?? my boy is getting them for a nissan spec-v and they are seeing decent gains. i know our cars are a little picky so i wanted to know if anybody has any info on this.

I just got some on my ride. I didn't use the whole set up just 3 parts. It hard to say without a dyno but I think it a good product. Some of my friend got there cars(hondas) dynoed after install and they had between 5 and 8 hp gains.Where some had none just depends on how well there grounded from factory.. If I fined something out on mine I'll let u know

Power gain claims from this are pure BS.
Steadier power curve (not higher) on cars with subject grounds I can believe.
However car designs are so well grounded today.
You can easily see at least 3 individual main grounding wires in our engine bay alone. The coil pack has it's own even.
Also explain how adding more grounding straps makes the engine produce more power?
The ignition doesn't transfer XX extra implied volts of firing power to create greater cylinder pressures.

A weak ground will rob any electrical unit of power. Elec is allways looking for ground. The better the ground the more useable power is left for other application  i.e. more jucie for the plugs more effective burn of air and gas more power..

That's a load of garbage.
Once the flame front is started the spark plug is out of the picture. The plugs do not burn the air fuel mixture.
A spark is a spark is a spark as long as it gets the mixture started on time.
The stock DIS is more than strong enough to accomplish this.

bro why would I lie have you ever had a bad plug or bad wires..with bad wires u dont get enough juice and you dont burn as hot you fell it in your car during have accel. a spark is a spark but a weak spark might miss which does u no good a strong spark is alot better and more consitant

Exactly - any power gains seen with a set of plug wires is in comparison to the old, worn out set. If you dyno two brand new, quality wire sets back to back, the only gains you will see are unrelated to the wires (dyno error, changing ambient or engine consitions, etc).
Same train of thought: Take a set of injectors that are clogged. Dyno the car. Clean them. Then re-dyno the car. The gains aren't FROM the injector cleaner you used - it's from fixing whatever was working improperly.

Then maybe I'll try my newest mod. I'm going to weld the engine/transaxle directly to the subframe!  Should be good for Mmmmmm, 30 or 40 hp?
Heh heh heh

fellas no need to argue  !! thanks for the opinions and the technical info. i think i will wait on them for now cause im buying so much other stuff. as far as spark plugs go, i heard the bosch+4's are no good with our cars, what should i go with. i have the magnecor 8.5 and the +4's and am experiencing bogging but i think thats from something else. i got a busted cat sensor which might be the problem, we'll see.

Even though I'm the dumb one that knows nothing about elec(even do the US Air Force pays me to know)....I used to run NGK Iridium plugs I just moved over to Denso Iridium ones there kind of high on price if you call my man Farick 770-972-7116 tell him joe sent ya
