boxman420 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 I do see the logic in it but i dont mind doing some more runs. I guess it cant hurt and then ill swap out the front battey as well. I have heard that before. Which then i need 3 runs of +. Although i might as well do more for my next rebuild.. Im on the fence of doing a dual alt setup its just a pain in the ass on monte carlos from what i understand. No i dont think that was me. This was my first post in probably a month or 2. I never see voltage over 15 Quote 2001 Monte carlo 2-Crescendo BC5500 Bass, Crescendo 1600.2 and crescendo 1100.4 mids and highs clarion-702, 4 ZVX 15s walled, RF 360.3, knukonceptz, toolmaker, DC power 270xp and DC power 370xp alts, PWX mids, FT1 tweets, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxman420 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Thank you CJvue. I think that will be my next mission. And i can get 3 runs with a spool so that will be perfect!

I never see voltage over 15 simply put your trying to pull more amperage than that 1 single run of 0g can provide..simple as that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should see an improvement in your voltage.

You should see an improvement in your voltage. one suggestion i will make is get 2 different colors for ground and power.. keeps things simpler and easier Quote This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP.

I bought all same color and had to mark which is positive and which is negative. don't go plugging negative to pos input and positive to neg input on the amplifier.... you'll see magic smoke.

profundus-sanus Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 (edited) as stated with a 270xp you need AT LEAST 4 runs of 1/0(2+ and 2-) i would do 5 (3+ and 2-) plus those chassis grounds you already have. imo power wire is the most often skimped on piece of a build...
