better grounds, cuz the honda ones suck, can slightly add a lil power, clean up your stereo, keep your lights from dimming all the time, etc. and they look really nice under the hood. for the 35 bucks that hardcore tuning was charging, it was a steal i thought it was a great kit, all it was really missing was those brackets, and yes a tranny ground, i forgot about that.
