I got it made already...just waiting for a break in the rain! I know it will help out, it's why I went and got the wire. I could do one of these for 10 bucks, maybe less....it could be done way cheaper, but I got really good wire. Let me know!

I used cheap speaker wire and figured out how I wanted to route it, then had the shop cut me that length in really thick shielded 10 awg ground wire. It will last forever. The wire was 15 bucks for about 8 feet

Mine

Dustin's: He has the Volant, so more room to hide the wire than my airbox void!

I didn't get this done today, chrissys sister showed up and they disappeared. I was going to use 4 gauge since I have it, is that too big?

there's no such thing as too big for any electrical wire

I might give this one a try. I need to do the "Big 3" anyways. My battery already looks like an octopus with cables coming off for the winch and amp. Im sure some 2 or 4 gauge cable from the alternator to the battery will be a huge help.

That is a great idea Morgan!

I put my ground wire on this morning, we shall see!

Well the hoe is parked today so after I get my hair did I'm going to put it on. I also have to change out the headlights on that damn chevy, I'm not looking forward to that.

dumb question but you are doing the other 2 of the big 3 right?

**myoung84** · 01-25-2012, 10:35 AM

Yes, I will do all 3. I think the alternator to battery is the most important, but the other 2 aren't far behind....

yes and no it brings in the power but unless you have a return for the entire circuit you are still bottlenecking it like running 0 ga to your amp but 10 ga ground

My buddy gave me some free 10 guage wire so I can make one more....free of charge
