KO4Life Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Ok guys so I have a 99 civic ex coupe, I plan on running 2 runs sky high 1/0 gauge from front to back 1 pos and 1 negative my front battery will be a xs power d925 and my rear battery will be a xs power d3400, now I will have all sky high 1/0 for my big 3 will this be enough for my SQ2200 and possibly a sony 4 channel for my mids and highs upfront? The alternator is stock at the moment but I will be upgrading that soon too. Budget Banging On A Budget..... 99 Civic EX Coupe XS Power/SkyHigh Powered Build In The Making...
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 With the alt (assuming you're getting a good alt) you'll be perfectly fine. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

rockFord_Expedition Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 What is the rating of the alt that you are getting? How long are your runs? Old School/New School RF Build March 2015 SOTM Winner How to crimp large wire
KO4Life Posted February 12, 2015 Author Report Posted February 12, 2015 320 amp alt and it says it will be 230 amps at idle. like 15-16 feet or so,not sure never knew that this mattered? Budget Banging On A Budget..... 99 Civic EX Coupe XS Power/SkyHigh Powered Build In The Making...
Rich Schenk Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 No way it does that at idle. I have a 340 and it only does 200 at idle On 3/28/2014 at 4:22 PM, KyLar96 said: Its all about the music anyway.....

Voltage drops across wire. The longer the run, the more drop. Also, wire of a given diameter can only carry so much current. Don't forget that OFC can carry more current than CCA. Those are all factors when deciding what wire to run. With a 320A alt, I would use SHCA 2/0 for your big 3 and your front to back runs. Short runs of 1/0 OFC will suffice where necessary.
