What size amp gauge kit should i run with a Audiobahn A8002T amp. It is pushing 2 12" fusion powerplants in S10. SOmeone told me 8 then someone told me 4! Which one! And how much power does that amp really put out? Will I be ok with the stock alt and battery? Will I need to modify that at all?

From what i kno this is an 800watt max amp.

So 4gauge atleast and 8 gauge will do you fine. Id go with 8 gauge now because if you upgrade your amp later maybe becaue Audiobahn other then having the fan isnt ALL that great but a nice amp at that. If yout going to might aswell go with 8 but a 4 will do you fine just depends if your going to upgrade your amp any time soon.

CarAudio... You're talking like 8 gauge is bigger than 4 gauge...

Go with 4 guage, all around better choice. Always better to have bigger wire than needed, than not enough. It'll just cut down on the resistance, which is a good thing. And besides, I'm pretty sure this amp asks for 4 gauge, am I wrong?
