2 feet of 8awg power is good enough for over 2000watts. You will be good.

Gauge isn't the only thing that counts, so does length.

Nice thats good to hear man, i will save a few bucks.. Im pretty sure the 4 guage run will be like 12 feet and 8guage runs from the block combined like 2.5 feet. Its a small car plus im not going all the way to trunk, just under seats.

 

no bloody way this is true... you're tell me i could power a 2krms amps with 8awg if it was 1 foot away from my rear batt?

are you forgetting about current/amperage draw?

i would LIGHT UP that 8awg

 

might be mistakin here but ure "stock" wire sure as hell aint 4ga and ure alt "CAN" charge quite a bit....... throw defroster on + htr motor on full + wipers here and there and oh ye head/running lights..... that dont catch on fire...
not saying it does it the most eff. ever but still..

like i said ... might be mistaken.

 

Yeah thats it... I forgot current..... hahaha chump

Like I said, length plays just as mutch a role as does girth. Basically a shorter run of wire offers up less reisstance. Less resistance = less heat.

 

my charging wire is 1/0, thanks for coming out.


i still dont believe using 8awg for 2krms even if its a 1 foot run is smart.

but i'm jalat, and i know dumb dumb about anything, i cant even break a 140

 

dunno if ya noticed..... but i put "ure stock wire" STOCK being the key word...
if u got that super honda that come STOCK with 1 ga. charging all the more power to ya.(where we even bring ure cars up here?)

did i say anywere it was smart? no actually i did say "it wouldnt be the most eff ever...."

and finally..... i never once implied,said or even thought hey there that dum dum jalat.....

but ye "thanks for coming out".... lol
keep on looking for the personal attack on you that was never even there lmfao.
