[QUOTE="Crownvicon28s, post: 6497442, member: 602517"] get rid of the 4 gauge. welding supply has 2/0 gauge wire for less than $3 per foot shipped. 2 runs of 4 gauge is not going to carry 400 amps of current. IDK if 1 more optima in the trunk will be enough for 4k. Maybe 2 or more optima's if you want to keep the batteries the same. I would go with 2 kinetik hc2400's. I haven't actually used that amp but I heard it was current hungry and 4k is alot of power to be running without proper battery support or wiring. Not trying to be a dick, but there is no use having the amp if you cant afford the electrical to support it, you are either going to smoke that amp or your alternator which ever comes first. [/QUOTE]
