[QUOTE="ifandorbuts, post: 112313, member: 544034"] There are 3 wires in your cars electrical system that can be upgraded to achieve beter electrical response. some people calim that this is just as good as adding a 1-2 farad stiffening capacitior to thier system. If you plan on upgrading your alternator or haveing it re-wound this is a must. Swaping out these wires should yield good results on a factory system as well 1.[B]From the battery to the chassis [/B] Upgrade the wire from the negative battery terminal to a stock ground point of the body/frame of your car. keep it short 2. [B]From the engine to chassis[/B] Upgrade the wire from the engine block to the chassis. There is a stock ground bolt on the engine. Its best if its the same point as the stock engine ground 3. [B]From the alternator to the battery[/B] Alternator output wire When replacing these wires you want to use thickest you can. 0 guage is a popular favorite but its huge! 4 AWG is more than enough though. Just as long as you just go bigger than your factory wires. [/QUOTE]
