    Where are the best grounding spots for a wrx? From where to where?

    I got the 7pc Grounding kit.

    Use the stock mounting points for grounding.

    I don't know about the newer cars, if they are the same or not, but the factory air box had nice bolting points directly on the frame rail. Those are the kinds of things I look for in a grounding point.

    I put two on the intake mani, where the stock grounding straps go, one on either frame rail near the fenders.(the ones piddster is talking about), one under the intercooler, next to the transmission mount, then one on each strut tower. That makes seven mount points.
