4 gauge audio cable.....(aka monster cable) will do it.....usually all the audio places will carry it....

Radioshack, Circuit City, Best Buy, Sound Advice......

Even Flea Market....

I just helped my friend move his battery for his truck. We used HUGE wire. 0/3 guage. overkill, but hey it works.

Oh and we picked it up at Home Depot, $.50 a foot.

Erm

I really hope you're joking. First off thats a quick way to start a fire and more importantly that wire heating up is energy that could be going to your electrical system ie a big waste.

And remember your battery releases toxic gas at a very slow rate, if you have a fastback make sure to put the battery in a marine case with vents going outside of your car.

Just get a Summit Wiring Kit. It's like $40 and comes with EVERYTHING. 0-gauge wires, connections, etc.
