I am currently wiring up my new system and I am using 2 Gauge wire. I have tried wiring it above the gas pedal but it is too thick and gets in the way of the clutch and gas pedal. Please let me know your input on where to wire it . THANKS

 

i drilled a hole...used a gromet...called it a day.....the hole is right next to the master cylinder.....how many subs u runngin....2 gauge seems over kill

 

I am running two subs to a 1500 Watt RMS @ 2 ohm and a 500 Watt RMS 4 channel amp to my speakers (mb quart q series) 90-170 Watt. So, 2 gauge is good but 0 Gauge would be better. I do a lot of car audio install and stuff but i just want to know your guy's input. I will eventually find a great way, and when I do I will post up the best place to do it.

 

Just drag the wire under the carpet right next to the door. I dragged 4 gauge wire without a problem, cant see it, but i dont know what 2 gauge looks like, but it cant be THAT much bigger?

I dragged it into the already pre-drilled hole with a bunch of wires sticking through it in the firewall. Its really simple once you see where everything is. Take off the left wheel well liner from outside the car, and you'll see the hole easily.

edit: oh yeah, the whole isnt anywhere near the clutch pedal, so you wont have clearance issues.

 

2 gauge is equivalent to two 4 gauge wires, (JL fine Thread High cureent wire)

 

I already wired it through there once and it didnt work out. The hole had to be drilled bigger and the the wire is just too big.

Wrong.

 

woops, it sure seems like it is twice it size......

 

u could always relocate the battery to the trunk

 

the wire carrying the voltage from the alt would then have to be increased to minimize voltage drop either way hes in the same boat. Would be better that it was closer to the amp i guess.
