  1. Thank you for the replies and useful knowledge. Will really help when it comes time to order some things.

    I think I'll start off with the Head Unit, Equilizer and 5.1 Channel Surround. Is there anything else I should really need to start with? My major problem is going to be getting it mounted in the dash, but I'm willing to cut it apart. Steve or anyone, if yall know of any good tutorials for cutting a dash apart to accomodate more stuff, please link me. I'm sure cutting it won't be the problem, it'll be making it look good again :D

  2. I just interpretted what you were saying in a different way than you meant it. I think everyone else took it as me being pissed. Misunderstanding and thank you for the information and advice.

    The 4/0 is like 3$ a foot shipped. Just figured I'd replace my POS 1/0 wire with it since I have kicker 1/0 for my big 3. I have a 300 amp Iraggi alt, but no extra batteries as of yet either. I plan on picking up a couple monsters soon to hold me over til' more of the new stuff starts rollin in.

    I really need to find a good deal though on some RF products. If I can't, I'll probably run a ZX2500.1 instead. I also may run RF 2/0 rather than the 4/0 because I really don't want that big of a hole in my firewall either. *Shrugs*

    I know the 4/0 is excessive, but I just figured if I can get it for a good price, whynot? I figure it's better to have and not need than to need and not have.

  3. i hope you don't just have a 1000 watts amp running with that 4/0 gauge. tell me you have like 4 Rockford T40001bds or something. people don't just find the biggest wire they can for least resistance. they do it because they are pushing a lot of juice and with 4/0 gauge you're talking over 20,000watts RMS

    You are absolutely wrong. Look at Pornstar from roe. He's using 8 runs of 1/0 for + and 8 of 1/0 for -. It's so that for the quick time he's burping, he can get as much juice there as possible as stated by irrupp.

    I can also get 4/0 gauge for less than kicker 1/0, so why not? If you're just going to try and insult or downgrade my plans, I'd rather have you not post in this thread. Thank you.

  4. I plan on covering my dash because the insert I purchased to accomodate my headunit was at one point matching my interior and now it's not. I'm going to use suede and see if I can get it on so that it will still clip back in. You may want to try first, but I plan on buying some cheap felt that is about the same thickness as the suede so that I don't spend 8 bucks a yard for nothing.

  5. i am makeing the ring termanals for my 1/0 wire with pieces of copper pipe.Measure the diameter of teh 4/0 wire go to home depot or lowes  bye about 1 foot or 2 feet, then cut it into about 1 1/2 inch peices anduse a  vice the flatten one side and drill the hole through it  AND THERE YOU HAVE IT

    Very much appreciated. How would I secure the wire to the battery though? I'm not the most up to date with electrical crap.

  6. Hey, I'm about to order 25 Ft. of 4/0 gauge wiring and was wondering where I could order a battery terminal to hold a 4/0 wire and a 1/0 wire. I have the big 3 done in 1/0, but am upgrading my power wire because I have some cheap crap in there now. Also, I was wondering if there is a place that makes ring terminals for 4/0 wire? please help :-)
