Posted August 13, 200817 yr Hey I notice Ppl using 2 2/0 for There ground Could you explain to me why so much for the ground and where you would put yours at on your ground because I was planning on using 4 gauge on Body (A) > Head (B) > Coil Pack © > Battery Negative (D) > Body (E) And was going to use 0 gauge for battery negative - body But why would you use so big wire on the ground? I was told the car for the ground needs some sort or resistance for the computer to know, but 2/0 is bigger then 0 gauge. If i decided to do 0 gauge will I be ok you think Here is a site that does my old car grounding its similar to the same identical to my new car for what I am about to do.http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=29261
August 13, 200817 yr Sounds like what you're describing is using large gauge wire directly back from the battery to the distribution block or amplifiers, directly...for a battery to body ground, 0 gauge should be more than enough unless you're competing and every last hundreth of a volt is important
