  1. alright so i just received my xs power d3100 battery... now how am i supposed to connect 4 1/0 gauge wires to it ??? do they make special terminals that hold 4 1/0 gauge wires or do i have to make my own ??
  2. alright ill just connect them all to one stud... sounds good to me lol... thanks guys
  3. i was thinking about that... so have 1 screw/bolt holding the 4 ring terminals on top of each other ?? what do i make them out of ??
  4. dont think so... its a 91 civic the only thing my alternator has is a plug with a bunch of wires going into it... and then a stud with a wire that goes to the battery.
  5. alright ya this is my daily driver so i will be driving it atleast 3-5 times a week.
  6. alright so i have a cheap walmart wet cell battery under the hood.... now i bought i xs power d3100 to run my amps off of in the trunk.... can i wire the 2 batteries parallel together or should i just run them seperate to the alternator ?? if i should run them seperate how should i do it ?? i wasnt sure if i could run them together since one is a wet cell while the other is a dry cell. i wanna run my cars electrical off of the walmart battery and the amps off of the d3100.
  7. im running 2 18" fully loaded BTLs on 2 Hifonics brz2400.1..... 2400 watts rms to each sub... you can get the amps on ebay for 320 a piece... thats how much i paid for mine
  8. can anyone tell me how to wire up 3 batteries ?? i plan on running 3 batteries for my 2 18s, just wondering how to wire them up to my dc power alt.... i plan to use one batt for my cars electrical and then one battery for each amp ( 2 amps altogether) if someone can tell me how to wire these up i would be thankful.. thanks
  9. awesome sounds good thanks bro
  10. are you talking about the BTL N2 or N3 ?? yes the N3 is a SPL only sub and made for competition... the N2 from what i read is a daily sub with a mix between SPL and SQ ... just like the ZCON i say run the BTL N2 in a 6-8 cubic feet box tuned to 28-31hz... that shit will hit LOW.
  11. have you thought about switching to the Fi BTL ?? I have but iv heard there a little peaky and dont hit the lows as good as some and lows are my SH*T hmm havent heard that one... i hope thats not true....i have 2 18" Fi BTL N2s and i plan on running 2500 wrms to each one... i cant wait... it better hit the lows real good cause the lows are my shit too this is going in a 91 civic hatchback ... no backseats lol but ive been following steve meade for a lil while on youtube and his system just looks badass.... 20,000 watts to 4 18" BTLs ... i love it lol
  12. well that sounds awesome !!!... i sent you a PM but ya i wanna run 5000 wrms so what electrical system should i go with ??? give me a link, details, and/or some prices and we'll see what i can do
  13. so i have 2 18" fully loaded BTLs waiting to be put in with 2 2400 watt rms hifonics amps....1 amp for each sub... but i need to know how many batteries do i need ?? also what brand / model ?? i know XS Power Batteries but which model ..im thinking the HC2400 for each amp ??. i wanna get 1 battery for each amp ... and then 1 battery for my cars electrical... also how many amps does the alternator need to be ... i know i need to upgrade the alternator.... im pretty sure i wanna go with DC Power alternator ive heard nothing but good things about them... what brand ?? where can i get the alternator ?? also what gauge does the speaker wire need to be ?? 12 gauge fine ?? im not a beginner to car audio so i know a little about what im talking about this system is going in a 91 honda civic hatch btw

    ZCON vs BTL

    so who wins ?? 18" Fi BTL (2000wrms) or 18" SSA ZCON (2250 wrms)

    Fi sent me the wrong size sub.

    lol i know right Yea haha. But its not my truck it's my mom's. So im limited on trunk space. Im only 17. ah gotcha... well good luck on return im sure you'll have no prob .... the Fi guys are good people... may take a little while... but well worth it

    ZCON vs BTL

    haha my 10 sec turbo honda would win just wondering which could take the power better ??? lets say i wanna run 2500 wrms to one 18" sub in a 35hz 6cbft box .... which would sound better...louder... and handle the power better ??

    lol i know right
  19. As far as batteries I am not a big fan of Kinetik. This is just from my experience with them so don't write that in stone. A lot of people have had good experiences with them. So that being said Kinetik uses the wattage that the battery will support as the item numbers meaning the HC2400 is said to be able to support 2400 watts as an extra batt so from what they say 1 of those for each amp will be fine. I would personally buy 3. XS is well known for their product but just as an FYI the D3100 is said to be able to support 4000 watts as an extra batt. These depend on your budget. NSB makes some really strong batts as well as Remy batts which make the Deka 9A31's so those are options also. DC Power would be my recommendation for your alt if you can afford it. They're great. I have 2 of the 270XP's but only have one on my truck right now (still waiting on the bracket for the 2nd one) and it is charging 5 XS Power D3100's with no issues at all (one under the hood and 4 in back). While driving I don't even drop below 14V with 5K running on it. So yes I would definitely recommend DC for your alt but all of this is based on your budget. Speaker wire: 8 gauge or bust. awesome thanks for answering my questions you ever have any turbo questions let me know lol
