What do you guys think? The knukonceptz is pretty much the same price, I think shipping would be the same from their site, but the Kicker is what caught my eye, don't they usually go for a lot more? I know the shipping is higher but after shipping is it still cheaper than usual? And is that a deal on the Stinger?

Why is the Pro Stinger kit cheaper??

 

[alpine3612 10+ year member]

pro=red

hpm=blue

blue is more expensive.

 

[thai_creeper 10+ year member]

Is there seriously no difference besides color? no difference in strand count and all that?

 

[alpine3612 10+ year member]

nope.

I bought the Stinger Pro 1/0 kit off ebay a while back and was very satisfied with the product.

Wow that Kicker kit is an awesome deal, I wish I had the money I would buy it right now and re-wire my car.

I have dealt with the Tsunami and Kicker 0/1 gauge kits...hands down I would pick the Kicker...

this is the one place where you really wanna see the wire itself and not just go off specs listed . some companies use a thicker jacket and less copper thats why the difference in price in some wire you get more plastic than copper . i was lucky enough to check a bunch of brands out before i actually bought my 1/0 and actually ended up going with welding supply cable for a few different resons super flexible and LOTS of copper also i needed more wire than was provided in the kits and at the time it was super cheap compared to the others .

but right now the price of copper is.. whoa to say the least and wiring is gonna get $$$ very fast.

yeah I agree, that's why I posted name/lines that people have said were good on this forum, just asking if ebay is the way to go instead of buying from stores or direct

as long as you know what your buying then the lower price wins .unless its a product that wont be under warranty if bought from unauthorized sellers etc.

Oops, nm. The Kicker kit owns. Just took another look at it, they provide distro blocks/4 gauge wire also! Not bad, and it looks like it's bigger than all the other wire also. Not to mention you get 20 ft, instead of 17-18 like the other kits.

Yeah, I shouldn't have to worry about warranty for wires though right? As long as I can see that the packaging wasn't opened
