all the metal rubbing metal, and spinning friction blah blah blah, all you need to know is: it go boom with no ground.

I have no idea what class my amp is but it makes my lights dim a bit two, can go really dim during a long instance. I recomend the following

- Optima red top batt.
- better hylogen(sp) head light bulbs, that take less power
- 2 guage wire (what I have, for + and the ground)
- A good cap (if you only pushing 600w then that is enough to stop the dimming, any more is overkill i think.)

I will be having bigger problems when i re-wire mine for 2 ohm, (1600w 800 rms) but well see.


or do the real easy thing, and hook a small 12v batt. up to your head lights so they have there own to help when the system cant give full power to it.
