Jk'ing on car but thats what I feel mine is like compared to you guys cars lol, anyways from front to rear batteries only has one run for + and - do I need another run of each?
About 400rms highs amp yes.
I have
240 mechman alt
big 3 in 1/0
pos and neg 1/0 from alt to a S3400 under hood
pos and neg 1/0 runs to a D1200 in trunk
300amp fuse at front and rear of pos run on batteries.
What else would I need? Another D1200 perhaps? (limited space in trunk but it is possible)
You can just lower the adjustable voltage boost module down to 15v cold and once car warms up it will float around 14.4 to 14.8v. Thats on 12v batteries though and I'm sure the coming summer heat might lower it some more. You will have instructions that tell you how to set the potentiometer.
charge cap first but from what I remember on mine it loses juice quick until you wire it in. Pretty much get ring terminals and add them to the ground and power lines that go to amp and hook those to the cap then run new power and ground from cap to amp.
I don't know if your cap has screws up on top or inputs for wire with hold down screws but if you have a distribution block for amps just run power line from cap to block as well as the rest of grounding.
Be sure to charge it first it should have come with a little card like thing that has a light that dims as cap is filled.
same as audio said but you can go cheaper. I went to lowes and bought a tiny drill bit and drilled a hole in middle of broken screw (use center punch first) then they also sell a reverse out drill bit the swirls on it are going the other way and you use drill in reverse.
Actual name is kobalt #1 spiral screw extractor and a dewalt split point cobalt drill bit 3/32.
Patience and a sharp center punch before you start to drill so bit doesn't walk is the main part once extractor catches it will clean threads on way out, good luck.

EDIT: I read audio's link and thats what is needed.
no problem I found link to pricing on the ones I posted through link above

it takes two 0g connections.
The thing about my situation is that the ones I had were from knukonceptz and they would slip off the brass posts that come with my battery. the S3400 are made to SAE standard so they are tapered off towards the top of post, every time I go to tighten them they just slide off posts. I ended up just putting ring terminals on all my 1/0 and just used the screws that came with battery and a washer to hold everything down.
I don't know if this company that has stuff for big three setup and 0 gauge wire but its worth a look.

what kind of battery do you have? I had the one's from knukonceptz but they where doing the samething. I ended up just putting ring terminals on the 1/0 and using screws and washer directly into XSpower battery I have.
