Need To Get My Electrical Up


Recommended Posts

Posted

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?

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

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 me

lookin 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
