If you decide to go 2ga I have several raptor kits left. Not fantastic wire but it'll get the job done. $40 shipped. Good deal.

Wire is wire, as long as it's the gauge it says it is.

I said that too a while back M.S. and Chauncey, I think, corrected me. He gave some valid reasons but I forgot them...

Some people say there's a difference between 100% copper wire and wire with aluminum in it........ I haven't seen any solid proof of that though.

There is a difference in 100% copper and wire with aluminum...its only noticeable in very long strains such as power wire for phone lines and such and even then its very minimal...Ur not gonna notice anything in your car or truck...

wire is wire....as long as it is the correct gauge..and a watt is a watt within an amps capable limits...:-)
