The Big 3 Questions


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, i'm thinking about starting the Big 3 upgrade due to the power need in my system. I've made a list of what i'm going to get and i was wondering if you guys could help me out with a couple things. Here's what i'll be getting

-15ft Knu Kolossus Flex Wire

-6 0/1 crimps

-wiring loom

My question is what kind of fuse and fuse holder i should get for the upgrade, i've been having some slight problems since i'm on a tight budget. The fuse is really not a problem, but what kind of rating should i get, 250a or 300a? And m biggest pain would be to find a correct fuse holder that'll hold 0/1ga wire and 300a. I found a fuse holder by dblink, but the thing looks so massive that i've afraid that i wouldn't be able to mount it in a safe place. If anyone could help me select a fuse and a fuse holder, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

so you won't need any connectors

5 dollar fuse, i would buy 2 or 3(always need a back up right)

and i just started a thread that pretty much ended with a boycott on knu koncepts CCA wire, get some tsunami or kicker wire, i mean, 10 bucks more for pure copper, its def worth it

and 250 amp fuse should be fine esp for that KK wire

Don't forget to solder those wires to the connector, dont want to risk a hot 0 gauge wire flying around in your engine

i agree with ch0sen, a 250 amp fuse would be adequate and i had a mate that just stuck the power cable to the connector and came flying out while driving on the motorway (highway) at 95, so yeah solder that beast in!
