Has anyone one here done this?
Would you recommend doing it?
Also where did you run the wires to?
Any pics of the install would be awesome as well.

Thanks.

I have not redone mine since I took it off a long time ago but the car ran smoother with it on. Just buy one of the precut ones from online.

I got the Forester running considerably better and with less hesitation just by sanding to bare metal under the stock grounds and sealing the wiring with dielectric grease.

If you add anything, a couple fat 8-4guage wires from each rear engine ground to the strut towers or negative battery cable should clean it up a bit more.

I can get tons of 4g wire for free/cheap. I just wanted to know if it helps, and we to run the cabling from.

Get a junction box then run them all from the negative battery terminal to various spots. Most just connect all the previous grounds together with the larger wire.
