I don't understand why the oem cable is restrictive? I can imagine it is if you have 50 subs and 100 amps, but on an oem/track car ?
The OEM cable from alternator from starter is a narrow gauge than the battery leads which doesn't make sense in my mind?

I was upgrading mine due to the extra length of cable I'm now using, guess the system works best when all the same size or bigger at the start and getting smaller as demand drops?

Think I'll blank off the OEM cable and use just the 4AWG, not both
