Okay, I'll see what I can do as far as that...

Any ideas on doing big 3 on the cheap? I really dont have $100+ to spend on 1/0...

u can do 4awg and keep ur factory wires too on that dont have to go zero

alpine iva-w205

fosgate t30001

rf t8004

What's it rated to at 4 ohms? I'm looking for about 500-550 rms, either at 4 or 1 ohm...1200rms will roast my subs...

If it helps, subs are listed below, Alpine type S 10" dual 4's, 300rms each.

Knukoncept is down to 1.75 a foot =] jump on that!!

How much should I expect to use for big 3? Alt is on passenger side rear of engine, batt is driver's front...1996 Grand Prix 4-door...I'll try to find an engine bay pic if needed.

Too many projects, too little time...

it does make 1000 at 1ohm but its alway better to have room to upgrade later down the road

couldn't be more then 10 to 15 feet i did mine with 10

Subs are like titties, They need to come in pairs because ones and threes are just wrong, and larger amounts will always draw a crowd, we all have our favorite sizes, but the bigger ones are more fun to watch move. :D

Words to live by.
