[QUOTE="faeezhio, post: 8221870, member: 653680"] Hey, so I took a look at my alt connections(the previous owners connections)....I got like 8awg from my live on alt running to my starter, and from my starter I got 4awg running to the battery, and I got 4awg running from the engine block to my battery for ground....if I replace all my connections with 4awg cables, will it take the strain off my alternator? And will my battery be much better off? Aswell as my amp, will it make a major difference compared to this ****** 10awg wire running to my amp? Lol or should I just use 8awg to my amp? I only need like 400rms or so from the amp....btw I got a kicker cvr, will it be a lot louder in a ported box? I drive a mk1 vw golf [/QUOTE]
