Problem is, none of this applies sinse automotive isn't regulated by the NEC. So without actually measuring them side by side you won't know.

WOW ! Guys thanxs for the replies.  You Guys can get deep !   your info is invaluable.

I wish  I can afford Stinger Pro Comp  0 gauge wire , but shop around the Broward , FL area are asking 3.99 per foot.!!!

You can get it online for much cheaper than that! Good lord that's a rip off.

I also use Stinger wire (just because I wanted that "branded" look) and it is quite flexible compared to the old PG 4 gauge I had from a previous install. I use the HPM level of wire; it is very finely stranded as Alpine guy said, though I wouldn't know anything about that last bit 0 gauge power wire ? - Page 3 -- posted image.0 gauge power wire ? - Page 3 -- posted image.. I have no other reference with which to compare wires, but I think Stinger would be just fine, aside from cost (Stinger is a little more pricey than other brands).

http://www.darvex.com Stinger, Lightning Audio and Sound Quest wiring

http://www.cardomain.com/shoplist~b~Stinger~t~Power+Wires Direct link to their power/ground wire section. If it doesn't work just try www.cardomain.com/shop and that should get you close enough you could find it yourself. They sell multiple brands on this sight, so you wouldn't have to stick to just Stinger if you didn't want to.

Hope that helps. I have ordered from both sites and have not had any problems with either one. Good luck.

Ok, just got back from lowes. I picked up 20ft of 3/0 for $30.
That's pretty good. NEC rated up to 200amps. SO it's probably safe to ~250amps.
