Why not???? We are all into different things i've competed on and off in isaca/usac sound quality Ultimate class competitions over the years and always enjoyed myself its just something i like to do. http://iasca.com/sqc/

This is mild compared to some of the ones i've built over the years.
I did a short journey into db drag super street 3-4 and 5+ competitions it was fun but all in all it's just lots of bass and not much else

So a little update is in order we are pulling the factory charging system out today. So today it make all new cable day. Here's a list of the cables being upgraded. Alternator to starter 0 gauge ,alternator to main jump post 4 guage and starter to batt zero gauge.

Gotta hold on install till my order on fire sleeve makes it in Tuesday that and got a few parts I've gotta go pickup that need replaced. Sooo hopefully middle of next week I'll have results and photos and a list of wire sizes how to and so on that I'll throw up in a new thread.
