the big 3:

alternator positive to battery positive.
Battery earth to earth
Engine Earth to earth

Upgrade to 4 guage or larger

[Dino209]

thats confusing smileys/smiley5.gif

you need to upgrade these 3 wires, and install as thick as possible. it will improve re-charging the battery and improve ground (which is most common problem with ICE installations)

[Baz]

thats ok then smileys/happy.gif mine are all 8 guage

[KAMENi]

you are suppose to go thicker, like towards 0 gauge

[Dino209]

hmm so where can i get these wires from?

[Scott]

same as i said in PM a while ago (was it you, apologises if not) any ice shop, buy a few metres of 4/2/1/0 guage and some crimpon ring connectors, cut to length add connectors and connect up

[Dino209]

yeh it was me ok so i have 4 gauge amp wire from my battery to my amp. can i used the same type of to use it as my positive and negative wires. so that means id be replacing my battery cables with amp wire have? is that right?

[Scott]

yes just make sure you mark them so you dont mix them upsmileys/smiley17.gif
