[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8681154, member: 576029"] I have an 02 Camry and am familiar with the engine bay (i've stripped the engine down before). The alt to batt positive isn't as useful with a stock alternator because the goal of the Big 3 is to reduce resistance and the factory alternator connection is as low resistance as you'll get. Adding larger wire is great only if the connections are more solid than factory. The factory boot will be compromised when you add a ring terminal, which will speed corrosion. The ground wire upgrades are the most useful because those are the weakest links. If you choose to run another positive wire, you can secure it along the front of the engine bay, in split loom, secured every 6"-8", and not touching the radiator. A fuse at the battery positive is a good idea in case there is any short on the wiring. [/QUOTE]
