[QUOTE="Pioneer~Saturn, post: 4871672, member: 569334"] Well, anything inline with the wire(s) that has to add another connection point or two will add some resistance but very little. I myself will be putting a 300 amp fuse on each of my alternators' positive runs to the battery just because ive seen horror stories about connections coming loose a bit and the alt almost catches the car on fire. And i will also have a 200 amp fuse on each end of each positive run to the rear soon...it sure as heck adds costs but safety is always a must especially if its a daily driver...but I could easily see why you wouldnt fuse a comp-only car where you have like 12 runs of pos and 12 runs of negative power wire running up and down the car I dont think it would make an extreme difference though [/QUOTE]
