    I'm trying to find someone local to split a 50ft roll of 0awg with me, but I'll probably just buy the whole roll if no one local wants to split. By the way, just emailed them and their 4awg spools are 1000ft in length, so can order as much as you like, but not a whole spool (unless you are crazy).

    its a cheap setup but it actually pumps
    Get onto this thought train pretty fast: Max power ratings are bullshit and no-one wants to hear them. Please quote RMS wattage values.

    lmao, gotta be a joke to claim "like 7k watts in my car"

    more like 700watts, at best... lol

    On another note, don't buy a wiring kit, its pointless.

    Axis 0ga cable has a RRP of like $12 a metre, although you may need to buy a 20 metre roll to get it for that price, which I did...

    of course, you may not need 0ga cable

    I've heard bad reports about it before, but even if its only the same thickness as 4ga cable, its not a bad price per metre..

    agreed the Axis cable is quite good value actually, that's what I have run through my car, though granted I have plans to rerun the power with KnnuKonceptz, as my 4gauge from distro in KnuKonceptz so they match

    the outside coating on the wire gets all sticky and i hate touching it (my left over is all wrapped up in a towel), its very thick aswell not as easy to bend, i just don't like it. it does the job for me thou, its thicker than 4 gauge but defs don't look like real 0gauge
