you've completely rewriten the laws of energy, congrats. take a basic electronics course, your gonna drive the teacher nuts. peace.
Explain it to me then. I dont doubt that Im wrong. Thats just how I have percieved it over the years.

you're pretty condescending in how you explain it...it's likely he sortof glazed over it. i'll admit, i did the same. instead of telling people - RUDELY - to take an electronics class, you could have just pointed people to something like www.howstuffworks.com
just a tip.

Seriously. Half of us here are just trying to get an understanding of it and Sir Kyle here is just telling us that everything we think we know is wrong because Einstein says so.
How about explaining a thing or two rather than just being a dick about it? Why can't I wire my whole car with 22 gauge wire?
i guess in some cases maturity doesnt come w/ age
i explained it pretty simply, along with basic analogies yet noone got the point, sorry i never meant to offend anyone. in a nutshell once again, larger wire has less resistance given the same current, so putting larger wire on your existing vehicle be it for the ignition, stereo, fog lights whatever WITHOUT boosting the power source be it battery, stereo amp or alternator will not do anything your existing wires arent already doing. the only reason to put a larger guage wire on would be because you have a more powerful power source running more current. as for "grounding" that whole idea is unnessesary. a good solid ground equal to the current being run is always sufficient. so in summary the idea of buying this companies cables and expecting to get more power defies the laws of energy, its the same as saying i'll run faster if i wear bigger shoes. i posted this explanation 5 times and i'm getting @!#$ for this? whos the dick.
you're the one getting testy about it. each time you posted it you were rude. BE NICER and we'll be less likely to jump on you.
besides - people like me just plain don't understand wiring and electronics. putting it in the dumbest terms possible is the only way i'll get it.

I think the key here is that the existing wiring in the car is likely the cheapest, smallest gauge that GM could get away with so perhaps they are not providing a good solid ground. It's likely that they are only providing a reasonably acceptable ground, which is good enough to not actually cause problems but not likely optimal.
Again.... what would happen if I replaced all the grounds in the car with 22 gauge wiring, and why?
it wouldn't surprise me if GM used the cheapest they could get away with for ground wires. from what i've been told, Toyota pulled the same crap.
i've still gotta get Scruf or someone to help me reground the turd...there's no way in hell i'm doing it. with my luck i'll fry the car.

you and your still a dick
nothing bad would happen if you replaced your ground wires with 22 guage, but you wont gain anything either. there is some truth to GM and other makers using the cheapest stuff available, but the wiring in your car is fine, unless your boosting power thru those wires, like with an amp or stronger ignition.

But what if the current power supply already supplies more power than the current will allow because of the resistance. Its the same as saying I have shoes two sizes to small. The current system would be inadequate which is why you would see gains.

thats the point, your wiring is adequate from the factory, resistance is a nessesity, if you had no resistance your wires would be crossing and current wouldnt get anywhere, dont look at resistance as a bad thing, its not. use non-resistor plugs sometime, your stereo will pick up your ignition spark. not a good thing.
^^^ Ah ok, so if it
WAS inadequate you
might see some gains.
I have been enlightened thank you.
