steve volz Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I have an 05 cavalier running over 7k in the trunk just got a 320amp alt, big 3 done, 1run of each pos and neg front to back optima yellow top and a group 31 Duracell in the trunk and stock batt under the hood. The 7k is total power of the 4amps I'm running my subs with. My question is how many runs of 1/0 how many grounds should I have and would it b good to add another run from the alt to b+? I will b adding another group31 soon http://www.stevemead...new-xfl-pg6-57/americanbass hd 12d22 audiopipe 1800.1ppi s580.4rockford p1653 frontpolk audio 6x9 rearbig 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 you're gonna need more than three batts for 7k. get like two or three more agm style duracell batts. one to replace the optima and another to add to the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkov Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 You do not need negative runs from front to back. For 7k RMS I would have at least 2 runs of 1/0 front to back. More preferably, but not necessity IMO (but I could be wrong?) Also, what brand is your alt out of curiosity? I agree with more batteries as well. 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.

steve volz Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I payed $425 for them and I can't buy a big amp for that price http://www.stevemead...new-xfl-pg6-57/americanbass hd 12d22 audiopipe 1800.1ppi s580.4rockford p1653 frontpolk audio 6x9 rearbig 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boom50cal Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I'd go with a pair of Northstar 170's...but that's me. On 1/4/2013 at 9:31 PM, HatersGonnaHate said: Wow. 184 posts and I think you're a fucking asshole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve volz Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Are those batts or amps how much are they? http://www.stevemead...new-xfl-pg6-57/americanbass hd 12d22 audiopipe 1800.1ppi s580.4rockford p1653 frontpolk audio 6x9 rearbig 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boom50cal Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Batt's. Pretty price'y, but then again...you're running close to 7k out of the trunk. You're looking at XS7500's($800ish each) and those. PurpleSyrup gave me a price on a used one for a bit above $500, but well worth it. wrong battery, nvm. Used on eBay for $375 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Northstar-12-Volt-170-Amp-Hour-Battery-NSB170-FT-NEW-/290556122213 And new on amazon for $600 http://www.amazon.com/NorthStar-Batteries-NSB-170BT-Sealed-Battery/dp/B00DV8KZYE/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1392347952&sr=8-3&keywords=northstar+170 Short bit on pro's for those northstar's.... 10 year float life, long/narrow/tall design, no maximum charge current...
