Big 3....Anybody

I was thinking of doing the big 3 upgrade and going to 1/0 for all main power and ground wires. I will be doing this becuase of the draw by my stereo, I have lived with the dimming of my headlights for long enough and am tired of it. Currently I already have a kinetic hc1800 battery and a cap so I am past upgrading thoes. I was just wondering who has done this before and if there are any issues with routing the main wire from the underhood post to the battery.

What i would do is upgrade the battery ground wire/battery terminal and see how it does from there. If need be then upgrade engine ground/ alt pos. The battery terminal in cobalts is pretty shitty, so replacing it with a better one that allows both the stock wire and the 1/0 batt ground you are adding should make the biggest difference. I would just recommend putting the new ground in a different location that way you cover your bases. sanding the paint under the stock ground might help as well but probably wont do much with the new 1/0 installed
