So I have this Amp laying around Link

I have pioneer speakers all around and I just have them running off of this head unit Link

So I kinda want to install this amp hidden in the spare tire compartment of my GTA. If I did install this, would I hear a big difference from the speakers? Should I just hook it up to the 6x9s? Because the little 4x6s don't give off much base anyway and I have them bass blocked. Would this be all I need to install it? Link

 

That amp is not the greatest but will work fine and sound much better than off the head unit. I would absolutely amp all 4 speakers. That amp probably has built in crossovers so you can get rid of the bass blockers. On top of the amp you will need an "amp install kit" If you think this is as powerful as you will ever go, pick up an 8 gauge kit, if you think you may add a sub in the future go with a 4 gauge kit.

So what you need in total:

4 or 8 gauge power wire - around 18ft to be safe depending on how you route it

4 or 8 gauge ground wire - around 3ft to be safe depending on how you route it

4 channel RCA wires - around 15ft to be safe depending on how you route it
remote amp turn on wire - around 15ft to be safe depending on how you route it

fuse and fuse holder to be mounted close to the battery - around 60 amp fuse would be fine

speaker wire - 50ft of 16 gauge should be good

8 spade connectors for amp side of speaker wires - same gauge as speaker wire

8 quick disconnect terminals for speaker side of speaker wires - same gauge as speaker wire

1 spade connector for amp side of remote turn on wire, same gauge as wire

2 spade connectors for amp side of power and ground wires, same gauge as wire

2 ring terminals for battery and body side of power and ground wires, same gauge as wire

A good amp installation kit should have most of that except for speaker wire and speaker wire terminals. Expect to spend $30-$70 for everything.

 

thanks a lot man! and as for holes in the firewall to run the power cable through I heard that there is one that the antenna wire goes through that I can run it through, is that correct? I don't want to drill any holes because I want to be able to turn it 100% stock if I want.

 

What side of the car is the battery? If on the passenger side I'd run it through the antenna grommet. You will see it if you take off the passenger side kick panel. You may have to drill it out or enlarge it somehow to squeeze the power wire in there. If you choose to do this you will probably have to take the wheel and fender liner off so you can route the wire into the engine bay from the antenna area.

If your battery is on the driver side you might want to run the power wire down that side. There are a couple of holes in the firewall you can run the wire through. Take off the driver side hush panel under the steering wheel. You should then be able to find one.

 

thanks alot! I really appreciate your help.
