What gauge wire is good enough? 2 or 0?

I should run that under the carpet, through the firewall and to a Distribution block?

I am also making me a new Alternator wire since mine is corroded to hell and back.

I have already re-done my headlight harnesses.

Possible places to hide the distribution block?

Just decided I wanted to do this while I wait on my windshield to get replaced.

 

what box do you use for the battery?

 

I can get a plastic battery box from work.

 

you can save some money and use 1 gauge welding cable. only problem is that it only comes in black.

 

You can buy red battery cable from http://www.wiringproducts.com (red or black).

I recommend 1 or 0 gauge.

Run the cable under the carpet and through the back of the hole behind the fuse box. You can put the distribution block under your air intake or battery tray.

Also, get the fuseable distribution block. I got mine from cardomain.com (rockford fosgate). Got one 150 amp fuse going to the fuse box and one 100 amp fuse going to the starter. In the trunk I have a 150 amp fuse on the + battery cable.

Good luck!

 

Pics?

 

Why move the battery to the trunk? Maybe it's a noobish question, but I thought most people moved the battery to the front bumper in a FWD car.

 

Better weight distribution. Hondas are front heavy as is. A lot of people give the "more weight for more traction." While they are correct to a degree, a traction bar would be the best option.

 

Also, cleans up engine bay signifigantly. So much easier to hook up audio equipment. Less wire mess.

I should be starting on this tomorrow or the next day.

Going to buy some wire from the sound shop from here. Kicker makes an awesome super flexable 0/1 gauge wire.

I have terminals that accept 2 4 gauge and 4 8 gauge wires though. So I need to find a way to get the 0/1 wire hooked up.

I should def. be doing the alernator wire though.
