I am gonna amp my front components. Alpine SpR 17S powered with Alpine pdx 2.150.

This is the deal.. I drive an Opel Astra G,and i already deadend the metal and am out of material,there are two ways to put the wires but both are very ''dangerous'' and i can mess a lot more stuff up so after many tryes and frustrations i decided to stop the sharade.

Instead of that i hooked up on the stock wireing at the doors,and in the end hooked out on the same. Amp cables are 2.5mm2,and the stock ones are 0.5-1mm2.

Amp cables go about 4 metars,than the stock ones go 40 cm,and than again amp cables for about 50 cm to the crossover.

My question is next: What do i potencialy lose with this move? What is the downside of this if there is one?

I am really warried so please help,and i am SORRY for puting the measures in METRIC,i know u dont use it in the USA,but i know u'll get the point.

 
if the stock wiring can pass safely into the door then aftermarket cable can be as well. you may have to do a little work but it can be done. in one of my cars i just had to slightly widen an unused port on the molex connect at the door.

Yes. Only thing is the leads will be encased in resin. Keep in mind that this is an assumption.

I agree with every one above. OFC is much better. Copper is a much better conductor than aluminum.
