  1. Are you sure those Pyle's can take 500w ? I have never heard of the PND8 before but the brand isn't known for its quality so I would be skeptical to see them actually play 500w rms.

    Let me add that it is no way in hell that Boss Amp you mentioned was doing anywhere near 4000w. Plus why would you want a 4000w mid range setup? I think you would be happier seeing those mids take a good clean 150 each. i would look at the Crescendo c1100.4 or 1600.2 the Sundown 200.4 DC 175.4 and just get one tune it the right way (dd1/cc1 or oscope) and really throw some clean power at em and see how they hold up.

    this is what ive found about them

  2. Also...when running the wires from the alt...do u disconnect the old ones then put the new ones on or do u just set the new wires on top of the old ones

    in my mind....it depends....does the power wire from ur alt go to ur starter??? if so, it goes to ur battery too...i just use the factory power wires....no harm...most of the juice is going through the 1/0 anyways

  3. well, its not a bad idea to run grounds from ur battery to the fram and to the engine block individually...seeing as how theres motor mounts between them otherwise (kinda doubting it's metal on metal) and power from ur alt to ur battery, as well as the factory power wire to ur alt again, and to ur battery (sometimes it goes to ur starter) and power from ur bettery (with a fuse less than a foot or less (i believe) from ur battery) to ur amp, and if u cant run a ground from ur battery, go ahead and find something that goes to the frame from ur amp

  4. this may not be the same for u (as i drive a 2000 cavlier with a 2.2) but i only lose city mpg...overall responsiveness is the same (maybe a little better) as stock....but i have a 280 amp alt, a D3400 under the hood, 1/0 everywhere, a pair of sony's in the trunk (ran out of cash, will be upgrading sometime lol) and a DC2k in my car, my highway mpg is still just as good as stock, cant be too noticable when ur car has about 3 times the power mine does :P

  5. im jw, whats a good volt meter to have put into my car?? one that can go in line with the power wire near the amp? or what? im jw. and if i can run another run of 1/0 through my car, should i use it as a ground, or a second power wire and just ground to seat belt bolts and stuff like that?? (cavalier if it matters with a DC 2k for an amp, plan on running it at .5 before rise in time, but id ,ike to try to plan ahead)

    please and thanks,

    Alex
