[QUOTE="Moofs, post: 7403803, member: 632103"] I'm ordering the wiring for my Toyota Paseo in the next day or two. It's a small 2 door car, this is what I've come up with. I will order everything from KnuKnonceptz, but have a few questions about which size fuses to get. Just an an overview, I'm going to be run two amps. One is a 2 channel that will make 70rms at 4 ohms. The other is for my sub, which makes 750 at 2ohms. I plan to run 18ft of 0g KCA (copper clad aluminum) wire to a distro block in the trunk. Then splits to one 4g wire that runs to the sub amp and one 8g wire that will go to the 2 channel. I will get 5ft of each, then cut it in half so I have 2.5ft of wire to use as power and ground. I'm not sure what size fuses to get though. For the inline fuse I'll get the 250A fuse since that is what the KCA 0g is rated at. As for the distro block fuses I'm stumped. I hear I take the power I run and divide by 13. So for the 8g I'll get a 30A fuse and for the 4g I'll get a 50 or 60A fuse. I'm not sure. What would you guys suggest? [/QUOTE]
