i have the amplifier mounted in my civic right now with 4 gauge but it is wired at 4ohms so not using all the power from it.
its fine in that car hooked up at 4ohms, but i want to pull it out of my civic and swap it into the truck wired to my 2 type R12s wired at 1ohm so its gonna be puting out full power again benched 1,640watts, but i only have 4gauge wire ran thru the truck right now. so do i really have to run 0gauge or can i get away with rocken the 4gauge for about a month or so until i upgrade to 1/0gauge?
im just getting really tired of my weak @ss jbl bp600.1 amp since i have it wired down to 1ohm because on certain tracks it kicks out.....
i plan on slaping that turd in my civic sine i drive my truck alot more than the civic. at least until gas prices go back up.LOL

but i do have dual batteries under the hood. 2 optima yellow top d34/78

well they are not wired up in that picture but i have them hooked together but with only 4gauge right now also.
i need some new 1/0gauge. i have the old 1/0wires from my old civic but its not pretty so id like to get all new wire just for the hell of it.
but i just bought some mufflers for my truck for funds are low since i mod check to check.... hopefully the bullets sound good on my truck.
truck needs a good wash inside and out but its to cold outside to do it.

on my old truck i had the single yellow top d34/78 with my old orion 2500watt amplifier... BUT i did have a kick @ss high power alternator that kept it at a solid 14.4v all day long!!!!
im going to buy another high power alternator within the month as well. only PITA thing will be finding the right size belt for the motor after i upgrade just like it was last time.
my truck has different size belts for different alternators stock and with the overdrive pulley its gonna be even trickier.... more less just trial and error outside autozone.LOL

i just sold my old cat converter from my civic just a few mins ago so ill be stoping by my local audio guy and see if he can hook me up with some 1/0gauge wire or not...
so i might actualy get enough wire to rerun the power before i swap amps out. i hope hes got some and can hook me up...
i also bought 2 new RF circuit breakers, he had to order a 3rd for me which will hopefully come in soon also. i got some weak @ss circuit breakers but they suck and both of them are already broken.... weak @ss trip arms. i sure hope the RF breakers really are quality. im sure they are.LOL definatly built alot better all the way around.
