Hi all,

Am currently waiting for my FI Q15" and a Sundown 1000SAE to be delivered so that I can start my install. I drive a 2008 Hyundai Elentra and need some help in figuring out the best recommended wire runs both for the amp as well as my alternator. What do I need to replace or add? I want to make sure that I don't die sitting at a stop light... lol...

    Supraflex Welding cable.

    Replace as much as you can, this would include the alt to batt, the batt to ground, the block to ground, etc...

    Try to go at least 2awg to run to the amp, if it is in the back of the car. Going with 1awg, 0 or larger will be great.

    Put the connectors on the wire good, if you can't find a crimper that will put the right ends on the cable, solder them.

    If you buy "car audio" soldering the ends may ruin about the last 6" so of wire, so buy welding cable to be safe... :)
