    minimum 4 awg. Of course if you can afford it go with 1 awg, If your going to do it go all the way with the best you can afford. That way if your going to upgrade the amps in the future at least the wiring will already be in place. Knuconceptz.com - they make the best wire around, they also have alts for sale on the website if you want to check them out.

    10 volts? lol bad alternator i'd say..If you get that without the stereo on and with the lights and ac on then you have a bad alternator or a loose connection between the alternator and the battery. You should have 13.6 volts at least with the car running. Definitely need the big 3 too in 4 gauge.
