Alouie Posted November 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 No I used the wire that was already run by the previous owner of the truck. I intend to get 0 gauge 100% copper and a rockford 10 fared capacitor. Just haven't made it that far yet. It is 4 gauge and the biggest the amp would except was 4 gauge so I thought it would work fine till I got the other amp an 2 more 10's. I guess I was wrong.

Alouie Posted November 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 Come tax season the inter project will be completed, but for now I'm going to get the 0 gauge power wire and the cap. The reason for the 10 farad rockford capacitor is its 50 more than a 2 farad and had a distribution block built in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alouie Posted November 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Had the alt tested hot and a whopping 105 amps. I'm so disappointed, but it still better than the stock alt at around 90 amps. My setup runs well for the most part, it's just a few songs that my lights dim on. I'm guessing that the power wire works just fine for now. I will be getting a second battery and the 10 fared rockford cap for starters. I know that my current power wire won't hold up when a second amp is put in to my mix. So once I find the rite wire I'm looking for that will be step 2.

Alouie Posted November 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 By the way the alt is a delco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
