So i have done some reading about doing "the big 3", Anyways, I got my Celica a few weeks ago the wiring was already done. I did not realize the previous owner had already attempted the big 3. Well he did finish, BUT the wire is 16 gauge. So that defeats the purpose of doing it does it not? Should i just replace the wires with 2G wire or 4? And what exactly are the benefits of doing this, just more power?

QUOTE (kurt95gt @ Jun 25, 2012 - 7:35 PM)  ? Wtf are you talking about Do you mean The big 3 or my whole question?, In regards to the big 3: Definition: the "Big Three" upgrade means improving the current capacity of three cables: 1) alternator positive to battery positive, 2) battery negative to chassis, and 3) engine ground to chassis. Some people replace the factory wiring; others add additional cables to the factory wiring. If you understand that you should understand my question lol QUOTE (Lil-Joe101 @ Jun 25, 2012 - 6:37 PM) Remove it but pace it on the postive side, The fuse is more of a safety net so u dont fry any circuits. If the negative wire is properly grounded there is no need to have it on the negative side, why it is is a mystery to me. Alright thanks a lot man i really appreciate it otherwise i would have no clue! This post has been edited by caribou17: Jun 25, 2012 - 6:42 PM |
