Thanks guys for the response, the reason my installer did that with the amps is well to tell you the truth, I have no idea, but it looks better in person, believe or not hehe. 2 awg was no problem for my installer, I asked him to do 0 awg but theres was quite some trouble through the firewall...

Here's what my system currently consists of: Eclipse AV8022 Kenwood Excelon Components Front and Back Audiobahn 2200HCQ 1600RMS @ 2ohm Mono Channel Audiobahn 4025HCQ 1200RMS @ 1ohm Four Channel Audiobahn 5 Big Farad Capacitor JBL W12 GTI ( two ) Custom Fiberglass Ported box @ 30hz 2 AWG wiring...

ill go check my car tonight and let you know the model number ( i have the yellow top by the way ) I watched an entire DVD with my audio on high volume and still had enough juice to fire up the motor without a problem!!!

optima yellowtop if you have a lot of electronic accesories, but the optima redtop if you need just a great replacement battery

they also had to make custom boards to mount my amps. and I also have a DVD headunit too

its components in the front and coax in the back, all 2 awg wiring, just a single yellow top

quite a few reputable audio shops are switching to johnson films... so im guessing its good? They also offer lifetime warranty, the last I heard.

The speakers are Kenwood Excelons the 2005, I chose those because of the easiest warranty. Its just an amp rack, no subwoofer box. They have been working on it for the past 2 days straight...They tend to be really meticulous with all the wiring, fitting etc...

the cost is including labor and the following speakers battery wiring speakers are $375 battery is $160 wiring I think near $100 and the rest is labor Also you asked no subwoofer? I'll be running Two 12's

I just dropped off my truck at my audio shop and was wondering how much the rest of you paid for installation. I'm getting the following installed. DVD Headunit Components Front/ Coax Back Yellow Optima Two Amps, One Capacitor I did not provide any of the wiring etc... Im paying 1100 with...

found it on ebay from a running car so heck might as well right?

cool, thanks a lot runner up. Ill be replacing quite a few things around 85k, such as water pump, belts, plugs, fuel filter, all oils, and probably a seafoam treatment while I'm at it. I ordered a MAF just in case ( $29.99 :) ) Oh yeah can't forget the coolant and transmission oil flush.

Hi guys, I finally fixed my power hesitation problem, but I need to attack a new problem. I realized the 4runner rides like crap. I was looking into the two shocks offered by kyb...but Im not sure which one offers the smoother ride. Gas-a-just or the Monomax. I dont offroad at all, just a city...

its not that, if you had almost the same problem as me, more power to ya... anyway, k&n and clean MAF, car doesn't give me any more problems, and the check engine light is gone too!
