bumpincruiser Posted August 12, 2008 Report Posted August 12, 2008 i cant run my kicker zx1500.1 at all in my 06 civic due to lack of power. i cant spend too much more money because i am a college student and need money. currently its all stock with 4 gauge wiring(i know that was stupid) so if i put 1/0 wiring all throughout and a new battery for the front or back i can run my amp fine?

needlesnpins Posted August 12, 2008 Report Posted August 12, 2008 depends on what kinda alt you have...adding bigger wire ( a good thing) and a extra battery will provide more power to your amp but will stress out a week alternator. i just redid my electrical with a 200amp alt and a new main battery and full tilt with lights and AC on not a bit on dimming. 12" fi Bl loaded RF power 1000 RF 25 farad cap 3SIXTY.2 processing 200A Alt 01' grand prix GT

boogieman12 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Posted August 14, 2008 its a small alt not sure the amperage but the only upgraded alt i founf for the 06 civics is 500$$ thats too much for melookin for other options You should be fine running 1/0 gauge, doing the big 3 under the hood , and a beefier battery like a optima yellow top. You'll notice a huge difference trust me
