4 gauge 3/8 and 5/16 4g ring teminals

my car has
0g from battery to battery tray
0g from battery to trani bolt
4g from trani to block
4g from block to head
4g from alternator mountin bolt to ecm
4g from alternator mounting bolt to strut tower
4g from strut tower to other strut tower
4g from strut tower back to battery

rear battery is grounded with 0g to chassis
and 4 g to each strut tower

i would also suggest doing power wires in 4g also
alt to starter
starter to fuse box
fuse box to battery

I used all 4 gauge wires. Seemed to help a little with idle, and brighter lights.
