[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7800791, member: 573547"] Think of this..your car's stock electrical is not designed to support the strain of a system that requires the additional amperage. You should use very heavy wire from the Alternator itsself to the battery and battery to ground, and also engine block to ground. If you have much larger wiring for positive and smaller for ground (or vice-versa), the system will suffer and you will not have the equal current flow required. All you are doing is reducing the factory wiring resistance to allow the charging system to keep the battery charge up to par while your system is banging away. ps the Alternator wire has to be fused close to the Alternator. This should be the case anyway,if your battery is in the back. [URL="http://www.knukonceptz.com/index.cfm"]Amp Installation Kits, HDMI Cables[/URL] [/QUOTE]
