deeje Posted June 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Ive never had an issue before with same wire its the kca style and I'm afraid if I don't fuse it'll happen on the battery then I'd really be fucked Quote --2004 Toyota 4runner New Build Log -2002 Acura Tl-S Old Build Log Team DC Audio spl dust is an option you can get on the coils... it's great for extra 1000 watts of power where can i get this spl dust and how much is it. is it hard to apply? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skullz Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 How does the wire connect to the fuse holder? If it uses a screw type where you just put the wire into it and tighten it, they suck fucking balls cause they tend to heat and melt wire jackets as the wire loosens from slight movements under the hood. Make your own fuse holder or get one that needs a terminal on it and bolts to the fuse rather than inserting it into a hole and using a set screw to hold it.
