what i was saying is that i dont see how he needs to draw 400 amps to supply his amps/ subs with the current. no doubt the setup is nice..he even made the red interior look good...

what the hell i like overkill myself:-D

All fiber optics, signal, power and speaker cables, were coated with Phoenix Gold's tin braiding to shield against noise.


Anyone pickup on that.
I hate it when noise gets in from my fiber optic cable.

Kinda like saying a big spoiler helps downforce, eh? But hell, could you imagine using stainless steel clamps every 6 inches to hold the wires to the car?? I think I would've screamed. Hm; I wonder how much extra weight that was?

I really like one point, though- he soldered every wire connection. That's my style!
