Lbox88 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Pass, It's cca and has a thick jacket. It's not too great, stiff as shit to run too. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lbox88 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Didn't see the ofc at first lol, I just looked back at some of my pics and I'm still not certain. I got the 1/0 kit and some extra red super flex when I did (kit was $12 if I got it with an amp). I will say, the CCA Super flex seems massive, might just be because I am not used to 1/0 though red = Super flex CCA, blue = normal ofc And if you look at the stock photo, you can see when they cut it that some of the wire fused together on the right side. Also, good OFC 1/0 should have a current rating of 300A IIRC, mine is only rated for 200A. IJS..... UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sphinxbccp Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 So is this a good deal or no?

Lbox88 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Short answer: I would not buy it again. Go with knuconcepts or something unless you only plan on running about 2500w-ish through it with no plans of ever upgrading. Just trying to save you money in the long run, that's all you need to keep telling yourself. Will lower the pain a little when you go to buy good wire. I'll also put it like this: You wouldn't buy a Ferrari with a fiesta's engine would you? So why build up a system and cheap out on wire? EDIT: I also remember most people around here saying if it isn't at least $2.50 a foot, then it isn't 100% ofc since the price of copper last I new was about $2.42/lb.

csill420 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Yeah dude its a good deal. 179 for 110 ft steal. I was doing some reseaech and it says that its copper in the description. Ive used some of ther same wire just a smaller gauge and its pretty damn nice! Go for it man Fuck warning points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellowmoto Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 The flash series wire is ofc, and it's a wee bit smaller, if not a true 1 gauge. Most popular wires like hyperflex, and knu are oversized and actually 2/0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
