I did it Friday. 1st thing I noticed was that my idle which has ALWAYS fluctuated about 200 RPM or so, now holds rock steady. You'd swear the needle was in a fixed position as I cannot detect ANY movement in it.
I would right away deduce that this may be a fix for the guys experiencing the "stalling at red lights" issue. Worth a try anyway.
It's hard for me to say for 100% certainty, but I am pretty sure I feel a quicker throttle response.
But the steady idle tells me right away the wire does something.
BTW, it's not so much the static, but the electronic noise that it gets rid of. Think of that car stereo you installed that whined like hell when you accerated. This fix was a better ground. Same principle.
For the cost (in my case I had a pre=terminated 4 AWG I use to connect batteries laying around) which is nothing or next to nothing and the time it takes to do (took me less than 5 minutes, but I have a CAI so the screw was easy to get to), IMO this is a mod you need to at least try.
You don't need a 4 gauge cable, I'd say anything larger than about 14 gauge would suffice. I first connected to the negative battery post, then moved it to chassis ground on the passenger side and the results appeared to be the same. I left it on the chassis ground only because my 4 gauge length allowed me to zip-tie it to the firewall and my CAI heat shield bracket to keep it neat & tidy. Battery ground would have meant laying it across the engine...
