Default GROUND WIRES

anyone ever try using stereo power wire like 4 or 8 gauge to redo their ground wires? I was thinking about doing it and using some terminals, and see how it works and if it increases throttle response... and acceleration

If you're up for making them then do it to save some money. I have the Suns hyper ground kit but I think speaker cable done up correctly will net the same results.

I used 2 and 4 Ga amp wires and heat shrink tubing to redo my grounds. Don't expect too much. Your just improving the electrical passage.

Car audio people who need excellent grounding generally reground as well.

I have a suggestion though: Instead of using audio power wire, just use welding cable. It's cheaper, and it comes in sizes ranging from 8 gauge to 0/1 gauge (plenty large).
