Lol really, make a thread about it, let everyone flame you, then come back to me and tell me you're sorry...noob.

I don't have to go by polls of public opinion to find out something I can test in the real world... NOOB. you have no clue what you're talking about. You're just an overly aggressive ignorant pussyhole. Until you can provide a shred of evidence for what you say you're an idiot. I don't really have to prove that a huge piece of metal far thicker than the 1/0 will have less resistance than the 1/0. Copper may be slightly more electrically conductive than steel, but the sheer size make the resistance almost non-existant.... noob.

does this mean that you are going to completely ignore every single rear batt/batts setup on this site. They ALL run a few runs of 1/0 from front to back, they don't tie into the frame. Good grounds up front, good grounds for the amp, thats it. I can't name too many people that have a rear batt set up that doesnt use @ least 2 runs of 1/0 (one + one -)

Yes I guess so. Truth be told is I have quite a bit more experience and know quite a bit more than most on this site. That's why I'm here, to help people like you and keep you from the misinformation. Can even a single one of you tell me WHY you want that run of 1/0 connected to the - side?

Cause 1/0 awg is balla, son.

Oh, you feel validated? You really shouldn't.

I don't feel validated through your post. I was validated as soon as I made my statement.

use an isolator and get a specific car audio battery like a kinetik with a fast discharge or a batcap

 

[ahole-ic]

don't care.

Then you wouldn't have brought it up or replied back.

It would depend on the matterials of the frame in which many frames/sub frames in a vehicle are not as "solid" steel" as you might think. Some have alloys and are weilded/bolted to gether without very conductive materials. I drive a 89 chevy S-10 and I gained between .2 to .3 volts grounding my amp/amps to the front battery vs a short run to the frame. In a uni body car I wouldnt even take the time to find a rear ground as there is nothing solid front to back in most of them. The very reason why the excuse of having the shortest ground as possible is even used is to lower the cost of matterials (thiner wire) and the potential (huge) difference in grounds front and back in unibody cars.
