[QUOTE="IDSkoT, post: 5682302, member: 584344"] The physics of it goes the longer the wire, the more resistance, thus the less easily the current can flow through. But, you do what you have to do. In an ideal world, everything woulkd be close together, but since this isn't idea, the alternator's on the opposite side of the car, and even if you put the battery in the trunk, there's still a long power wire. But, yes, the shorter the ground the better... and you can try to get the power wire as short as possible. But there's not really much you can do. [/QUOTE]
