Supercharged DCs Posted July 7, 2011 Report Posted July 7, 2011 I'd use the one with the biggest strand count, as long as you have enough of it. Quote Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012.
deeje Posted July 7, 2011 Report Posted July 7, 2011 Well bigger can't hurt it so the biggest you can fit. 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
adam6604 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Report Posted July 7, 2011 well normally i'd think that too, but its Schosche so i didnt know if it being a crappy wire would make much of a difference as a speaker wire lol Quote Driving my 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 MEGA cab with the 5.7 hemi.

dkahns51 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Posted July 7, 2011 I found it almost impossible to fit 2 strands of Knu 10 gauge into my SXX... Quote **Clicky>>My 2009 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport Buildlog<<Clicky** I'm messing up 98% of the time
Supercharged DCs Posted July 7, 2011 Report Posted July 7, 2011 Depends how big it is, I know my Knu 10awg speaker wire was bigger than my Scosche "8awg" power wire lol. Quote Bassless once again.

adam6604 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Report Posted July 7, 2011 oh really? well shit i hope it fits, pain in the ass taking it all out for nothing haha, if the 8 doesn't fit ill just use the 12 cause i cant find my 10awg lol Quote Driving my 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 MEGA cab with the 5.7 hemi.

Well if I wasn't on my iPhone then I would read your sig! And if you'd read the "wire/fuse guide" in the electrical section then you wouldn't be asking us this dumb fucking question...
