Big 3 does help. I had done in my cavalier and when I traded it in on my Focus, I didn't do it and just ran tiny 4g wire compared to the 0/1g wire.
I was getting quite a bit of dimming of a 1000 SM-1 Autotek amp, but not with my SS 750.1 Autotek in two different setups in my Focus. Seems I can't go over 1000rms or I get dimming.

When I rebuild my setup this coming year, going to do 0/1g and big 3 with no battery and see if I get away with that.......probably 1000rms again, but not sure yet.

You should be fine if you are only running 1000watts and do the big 3 as long as you have a decent stock battery, if not then just do the big 3 and get a nice battery for the front and you should be good. If you were going to run more power I would just get a nice battery for the back and run an isolator and keep the stock battery for the car itself!

Yeah, I had kinetiks for my cavy as well. Forgot to mention that, lol!

Just want to see if I can get away with not running an extra battery or replacing the front. If so, then so be it. I can get one of my older Kinetiks I sold a buddy and told me he would sell it back to me for 50 bucks, which is 50 dollars cheaper than I sold it too him, lol!

just a 600cc..........he refuses to sell me back my 2400. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
