Default so my friends bought an ebay grounding system...

Hey guys so my friend just bought an '02 civic ex. it came w/ some shitty dnx exhuast, altezza's, and underglow... ricey yes, but im not gonna stop him, if thats how he rolls. i just probably wont roll w/ him anytime soon.
anyways he came up to me last night and wanted to know how to install a ground system he got off ebay for ten bucks. of course it didnt come w/ any kind of instructions.
the whole thing looks like a big spider. im assuming the body of this "spider" attaches to the neg terminal of the battery. can anyone tell me where the seven legs go? haha

um having too many grounds is bad for your car. use 4 at the most. ecspecially if they are ALLLL coming from that body of the spider.

Don't waste your time.

A grounding system on a 100whp civic? Uhh, ok. Expecting throw-you-back-in-your-seat rocket launching? Won't happen.

How are more grounds bad ? I would say any more then 4, is over kill but I don't see how it could be bad.
