Well at my last comp I hit a 143.9 with my upgraded 4 gauge wire from alt to battery... But I hit a 145 with my stock wire... I know everyone mic is different..Im running my amp at 1 ohm.. At night sometimes my headlights basically flash...But other nights it is not bad.. Is the connection not tight enough...For my next comp should I run the stock wire or run the 4 gauge wire... Is there anyway I can check to see which one is better?? Thanks guys..

From what i was told , you leave the stock power wire and just add the 4 guage wire from the alt to the battery and as i am pretty sure you know you must upgrade your ground wires also

I upgraded my battery ground but not my alt ground.. There is this plastic cover over where the bolt is to screw down on the connection.. If I take that off then I could have room to add the stock wire 2...
