the wire to do that will cost you no more then 40 or so. mine only cost me 25$ to do mine. so the shop could do it for you. but you are going to pay like 75-100 more then you would have to if you did it yourself

Alright I'm going to try and do it my self. I'm pretty mechanically inclined I do mostly all my own stuff. So I can figure it out with good ol' YouTube and help from you guys.

idiots....the man does not need 0 gauge for the big 3 on a STOCK fucking electrical system. its just a waste of money unless he plans on spending $500 down the road on a bigger alt.

although it is required that you get a 0 gauge wiring for the amp.

yeah cuz it totally make sense to upgrade it slightly now an then have to upgrade the big 3 again. thats so stupid. an u cant say that the big 3 in 0 gauge doesnt help on stock electrical. i did it on mine at it helped tremendously.

Ya I'm going to do it myself and I might as well do it with 0 guage since its not all that much more than 4 guage. And it's the best I could go so why not?

Doing the big 3 in 0 gauge always helps, it will at least help you maintain a higher voltage.

I'm gonna hate
