I'm guessing from the kind of car you have that your stock alt puts out at the most 80 amps, probably less. 4 gauge is gonna be plenty for that. 6 would work fine too. |

Silver Member Username: Big_osoPost Number: 154 Registered: Jun-05 | so if i run 4 for the big 3 then is it ok to run 2 or 4 for my amp since its a 1000 wrms? i know im going to need to upgrade my batt and or alt but im trying to bide my time |

Anonymous | yeah 4AWG works just fine Oso. 1 X 4AWG in and 2 x 4 AWG out (since i've got 2 amps). I use that on my 98 Corolla. Drawing nearly 1300 RMS. No dimming lights. hehe phewww... But my next upgrade would def. b Optima Red Cap battery. |

Anonymous | try Knukonceptz. If not u can use 1 x 2AWG in with 2 x 4AWG out. Using all 4 AWG wires. Don't think that would pose a problem. I nearly went that way until my friend found a 4awg in and 2x 4awg out sitting in his garage. lucky me |
