Subaru needing multiple ground straps...

I came across an article and I seem to have misplaced the link but essentially the individual mentioned that a subie engine/car needed a Negative post  to body ground, Negative post  to engine and Negative post  to tranny.

He says that this has solved his hard starting issues in his car.

Now my story, I have had a CTEK permanently installed by my builder when I got my car, and  I soon found out it did not work and CTEK mentioned that it could be a ground issue.  In the end I did a subwoofer install and needed the space so I pulled it and used it manually in front.

Now fast forward, there are times I just find the car has a bit of hesitency in starting and especially if I don't drive it much and have not put the conditioner on the battery.

I am thinking of doing the extra grounds .... what does the collective think.
