Wow, none to the block and to the head? That's pretty bad as the gasket used between the transmission case and the block would have some insulating properties. No wonder the new ground cables helped you that much.
at the moment my car is running an sq setup.
no ground loops. there is no audiable noise or interferance at all.
sorry to burst your bubble
A ground loop occurs when there is more than one ground connection path between two pieces of equipment.
this is not the case here so your claim about my setup in particular .
the under bonnet grounding has been use extensively by Marty at fhrxstudios utilising the alum bus bar.
as well the rear grounding reinforcement setup in his SQ demo car.
im very happy with my diy setup which has claimed me numerous trophys.
i can see why once you read what i said you though thats a a grounding loop for sure. but i assure you there is not.
anyone know the main sensor ground location on a B series engine ?
I think this is the ground that Aaronng mentioned.
This is the pix from B16 engine

But if we put ground cable there, won't there be ground loop? One from cable, one from engine ground.
This weekend im going to order (all genuine)
- Pivot Raizin Volt Stabilizer
- Pivot Spark Earth
- Pivot Ignition Earth
Fingers crossed that it will do something positive
And that too :(
Been reading a singapore FD honda forum and a fair few people has installed these products. They claim that it works. I guess i got sucked in. Anyways, ill be the guinea pig since i dont see anyone on OZHonda with these items installed on an 06 Civic. Link me the thread if i missed them
Im not expecting it to become a V6. People who has them installed mentioned things like: better torque at the lower rpm ranges, smoother delivery of torque thru the rpm ranges, reduction in kick-back in stop-go, slow traffic. Things like that. Only way to find out if what they said are true, is to test it out myself. Im only getting it cos these ppl installed it on an FD and found that it works. Anyways, it takes a few weeks to get it in so ill write up a review in a months time, hopefully it wont be my light wallet thats giving me the speed :p
man if it doesn't do what its supposed to send it back.
Tell them what you've told us and i'm sure they'll take it back. They have a reputation to hold up remember.
That 100 bucks could be better spent on other things.
ohhh.... - Pivot Spark Earth & Pivot Ignition Earth... anyone tried these on the euro?
