If you do wire them at 1 ohms then you will run the risk of burning up the amp. If it isn't 1 ohm stable then you could wire then to 4ohms they will still hit just not as hard. |

Silver Member Username: JayjPost Number: 254 Registered: May-04 | Ok I just found it and yes its 1ohm stable so you are in luck. You can use this diagram to wire them to 1ohm. http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/ISEO-rgbtcspd/learningcenter/car/subwoofers_wi ring.html?subs=2&impedance=DVC4x2 P.S. I hope you got atleast a 200amp alternator. Good luck |

Silver Member Username: JayjPost Number: 255 Registered: May-04 | Well the best advice I can offer is to hook up the system and if the lights dim if they do then you will need a bigger one. Since you got a 180amp that leaves you 60amps for your car to run on as long as your car isn't FULLY loaded you should be fine. But just hook up the system and see what happens you should be fine though. |
