Even if there was just a tiny bit of static on the signal this could change a whole lot of things the pcm will do to the whole system. The only way you could test it is to have the return wire hooked up to a spectrum analyzer or an occiloscope and see if over time there is any build up of extra noise on the signal but you would need to know what the threshold is from the factory. Then connect the grounding wire to the throttle body and see if the noise drops.There may be some merit to your theory it would be interesting to scope the signal for comparison with or without the extra wire direct to ground. I do have a hard time believing there would be that much static but you never know I guess.
LOL, I was just thinking this myself. It's easy to do, it's cheap and there is absolutely no harm it could do. Might give it a try just to see if I can notice any difference. :smileup:And hey if it is true you sure cant beat the price of free. Im possitive that 90% of us have some wire just laying aroung the house that a multitude of you guys could try this and see if it really works or if it is just a pipe dream...
And if it does work i deserve some mega rep points!LOL, I was just thinking this myself. It's easy to do, it's cheap and there is absolutely no harm it could do. Might give it a try just to see if I can notice any difference. :smileup:
No clue which bolt i do remember he said it was one that would easily hide the wire apon install...from what bolt on the throttle did he connect it too
And he is saying the truck is shifting better too! He has had the truck a long time and has raced it alot im sure he would notice a difference if there was one.
Would this like the "blind test" we always hear about on those TV cola commercials?...LOL!subscribed. one person did this mod and said it seemed to notice, any1 else? I guess we need to sneak over to someone ram and do this without telling them and then ask if they felt any change in driving!!!!!!
