looks as if you did the big 3, way to go. change that stock battery out and get you a optima with custom terminals on the top and you'll be good to go.

2-DC 15XLM2 D.7s

1-DC 5K amp

(1) XS Power D6500(UNDERHOOD) and (1) XS3000(REAR)

3 runs 1/0ga for power and 2 runs of 1/0ga for negative.

(2)-RFT165s components, ...... 4 separate 1 inch tweetersRF T600-2(fronts) Punch 450.4(rear)

Audiocontrol 3.1.

Thats my next step. Going to keep the stock up front and adding the Optima in the rear. Shannon

change the stock in the front along with putting one in the rear, that's the way to go, keep both batteries identical. i've heard it's not goo to mix batteries not alike together.

well usually when wired in parallel the battery's will only hold the max energy thats in the bettery that can hold the least... but if using a isolator then it wouldnt matter

theres no such thing as too expensive when it comes to upgrades like that, because imo if you are gonna spend to upgrade then do it correctly rather then be a cheap ass ricer

I ran mine on the right side of the car underneath the trim.

the left side has the most speaker wire at least for the mine so it would interfere too much.

once I got close to the firewall I drilled a hole in the door frame and wired it in between the wheel well and up into the engine compartment.

Wouldnt be thehoe92 without teh purple
