He said it doesnt and that i should stick to 16 awg wire for the doors, which most ppl would recommend, but i already got the 12 awg and i really dont feel like spending anymore. Anyways, i told him awg does matter, such as in the Big 3 and he said that the stock wiring is fine (imma assume its 8 awg) from the alternator to the battery and that it would be a waste of money and time to switch the cable to any higher gauge. Ive read many articles saying it did help ALOT, but i really need to prove him wrong, with facts or im about to get proven wrong. To start....- does awg matter? Such as a 1/0 or hell even 4 awg for a big 3 with high power amps and car?- does a big 3 even do anything?- he said that awg only matters in long distances, true or false?- Facts please.My dad also said get a capicitator instead of a new battery or alternator......He also said that all ya just want to make money (um ya r making money by helpin/sayin stuff on the forum?) and that none of you probably have a degree in electronics or some shit.Really this thread is to either prove him right or wrong but since im already making a new thread.....which one should i replace as a top priorty due to dimming, the alternator (60 amps) or the battery? How many amps alternator should i get for a 1000 watt class d system, plus a 600 watt class a/b system? I also plan on adding a supercharger or turbocharger, if it matters. Would it matter if i got a high amperage alternator, say 200 amps or is that too much and could cause problems?Thanks</blockquote>
