yeah i would go on the 3 subs the bxi 1608  because its under thew subs total peak so you wont blow thema nd the bxi2008d is 100 over but didnt have a fuse rating.  fuse wise the 1608d take 2 70a fuses and the zxi8008 takes 2 50a so thats a total of  240 which is 240 amps total fuse ratiing and thats under a 4 guage wiring amp kit. caps do need it do the big three  upgrade caps are a waste of time. also get a bigger battery than stock  because i dont know your cchevys alternator amerage but a 240 a drain is gonna make you blink and your are gonna eventulaly kill you alt. and battery so do those first before you  put in a system the alt. you might be able to get away with no changing it idk. but do the big 3 alt post to chasis, alt pos to battey with fuse within 18" of battery and battery ground to chasis.. other than that knock some bolts loose:)

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Ummm... #4 is only safe to 150A. You're gonna burn somebody's car to the ground someday.

How is that last time I checked you are supposed to add the the fuses up and the combine number is your main fuse right. Unless you woke up and decided to say what you want

He did not just wake up and say what he wanted. He is correct and unless you want to burn a car to the ground, it is time to open your mind and learn.

Ok well then. The amp I suggested had (2) 70a fuses and the other one had (2) 50a fuses and the total amperage is 240amps on the combined amps. So I lookd at the post I wrote late that morn and I was wrong but we are all human we all make mistakes but I looked at the 4 guage amp kits and the kits sell with a 150a fuse/ holder. And I haven't nor got close to setting my or someones car on fire . The purpose of this forum is to help each other and not get screwed over by going to the shop. If someone is wrong correct them and keep your negitive comments to yourself. So lets all work to help this guy get his intall done;)
