pssstgotbags94 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Im about to install 2 kinetik hc-2400's in the back of my s10 (inside the jumpseat compartment if they fit) they will be stacked and linked with 1/0 knu koncepts wire. I'm not sure if I should do my 0/1 gauge run to them from the alternator directly or from the front battery. I'll be running the stock alternator and stock type battery in the front until I figure out exactly what alt and what size battery I can fit in the front. I'm running a kicker zx1500.1 powering a single dc level 5 18" sub off stock everything with only big 3 done and I have pretty bad voltage drops. I've also been looking at everyones opinion on battery isolators and seems I don't need one. But I'd like to know for sure. So any help on how I should wire these batts in would be great.

pssstgotbags94 Posted July 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Yea I know that. But for a week or 2 it will be fine until I figure out what battery I can get up front. And I'll have a battery tender plugged in at all times when parked to keep everything topped off Quote 2004 Nissan 350z slammed on topspeed coilovers pioneer appradio B2 audio Quota for sub B2 audio HN15 sub Lunar L2200 for highs Infinity kappa 60.9 components in doors Under construction still.

Crandis16 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I'm looking at adding a battery too. I believe that you run both the pos and neg from front to the trunk battery. I'm not sure if you're supposed to ground the battery in the trunk though?

ChevyBoy95 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 from front battery, and get an agm up front bc itll destroy your kinetics over time it wont destroy them, i have ran kinetiks with stock batteries for months and they still rest 12.9v. yes it is bad for them, but destroy is a strong word.
