The fuel injector harness grounds to one of the bolts that hold the fuel rail 
in place (this is true for all of the intake solutions).  On the back corner of 
the 2-piece intake there should be a standard ground strap from one of the 
bolts that hold the 2-pieces together to the firewall.  This is the same basic 
strap that is used on all of the various intake types.

When you're under boost, the injectors are drawing a lot of current because 
they are being held open longer.  The ground straps help provide a more direct 
path to ground rather than the sensor ground wires, which are not rated for 
that much current.
