I just bought an irragi 200 amp alt for my car which is gunna replace the stock alt. The stock wiring is 8 ga and has to be replaced. I was about to put 0 gauge in there but the guy at the audio store said it should be 4 gauge because the line needs resistance. I already have the 0 ga wire + everything else. SHould I just go ahead and use that or do I go with the 4 ga.

Cheers
