[QUOTE="ovalevader, post: 6876326, member: 604735"] Lol, some of you audio e-xperts make me laugh... Why would car manufactures put a cable inbetween the alternator and battery that is incapable of carrying the current the alternator is capable of producing, creating an obvious fire hazard? Most cars use a 3ft run or less of 8 awg cable for the alternator positive, which is good for 105 amps... does your cars alternator put out 105 amps? I doubt it, and if it does, it uses 6 awg or better, which is good for 140+ amps. If you want to add (keyword) a huge cable to your alternator, creating more resistence, and more load, and if you aren't fusing (which most e-xperts aren't) your also adding a fire hazard, gj. Like I said, this applies to stock alternators, any alternator that puts out more than oem, should be upgraded, and even then, 4 awg cable is good for 200 amps in 3 ft runs. Stop being retarded and trying to catch people on fire. [/QUOTE]
