moh.vze.com Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 If you have any extra after the 3 runs, do 1 more ground to frame in back. So 2 pos front to back, 1 neg front to back 1 neg back to frame I like this idea. However, it kinda sucks that Knu sells in bulks of 50ft or more expensive for by the feet. Maybe I can work out a deal with them and get the cheaper by the feet deal for just an extra few feets. I'm pretty sure I would need 18 feet per run to the trunk of my 99 Camry. That would not leave me with enough for an additional 18 feet run of negative Unless I do runs of 16 feet or something heh. Edit: just did my measurements and concluded that it would be safer to do runs of 18 feet.

moh.vze.com Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Help me put all of this on paper guys! I'm trying to compile a list of all the crap I'll need to buy for this setup. 2 Runs of 1/0 18ft to the battery in trunk. I'm going to assume I will need 2x 300A inline fuses in the front and 2x 300A inline fuses in the rear battery. (Ray where you at? Where should I buy mine. I heard you're against Knu ones). 1 run of 1/0 18ft to the negative in the trunk I'm guessing next I will need a few Distribution blocks? To wire the 5K amp and the PPI P900.4 Amp? This is going to be so confusing Anyone wanna help me compile a list? It's all of those Distribution blocks that's confusing me.

Craig28 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I took out my seats and carpet for my runs, put them through the firewall with gromets, ran them down the middle of the cab along the center console, then to the trunk. Also usually you want to have the same number of + and - runs. Hmm. I have them going through the driver side and my RCA's through the middle console. Well, I don't think I want to spend $400 on Knu wire, so I'll probably just do the positve runs and ground the trunk battery to the frame of car somewhere. To the guy above post, how much is Shok wire and is it OFC ? And are you running the positive and negative runs on top of each other? Yeah it's OFC. You'd have to email russ for a quote though. It's pretty high quality wire. The competition cable is 5250 strands.A great place for fuses/blocks is vtewarehouse.com DIRT CHEAP. They're not the prettiest but they work.

Hehe, I'll most likely sell off what's leftover, but 4 runs to the back and big 3 etc will add up! Help me put all of this on paper guys! I'm trying to compile a list of all the crap I'll need to buy for this setup. 2 Runs of 1/0 18ft to the battery in trunk.

This is going to be so confusing Anyone wanna help me compile a list? It's all of those Distribution blocks that's confusing me. You should just need 4 (or 6 if you want to fuse from back batt to amp which I suggest) fuse holders, 6 fuses, a few grommets, and ring terminals. Shouldn't need any D-blocks since you can just put another run of wire off the 2nd battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moh.vze.com Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 ^ ^ So, D2400 Hood Batt--> 2x 1/0 Power Wire Run --> 2x 300A Fuse Holders --> Trunk --> 2x 300A Fuse Holders --> XP3000 Trunk Batt XP3000 Trunk Batt --> 2x 1/0 Wire Power Run --> 2x 300A Fuse Holder --> DC5K Amp (Assuming the 5k Amp that I get will require 2x Power Runs) XP3000 Trunk Batt --> 1x 1/0 Wire Power Run Power --> 1x 300A Fuse Holder -->PPi P900.4 Amp DC5k Amp --> 1x 1/0 Wire Ground Run --> Distribution Ground Fuse Block? --> Frame PPi P900.4 Amp --> 1x 1/0 Wire Ground Run --> Same Distribution Ground Fuse Block --> Frame So I need, 7x Inline 300A Fuse Holders & 1 Distribution Ground Block or more? Can someone help me with the diagram here? Can't I just use a distribution block somewhere in this equation to cut down on the Inline Fuse Holders? Also, should I use some 4 Gauge wire during the amp part in the trunk or should I stick with all 1/0 Wire? Oh I'm also guessing the Fuse Holder or Distribution blocks for the powers on the amp will not be 300A and will be something else according to the Amp fuse ratings?
