So im going to put in a full 3 gauge pod and was wondering the best way to wire it. like run all seperate wires to the battery or specific point or what? I dont necessarily want to run a lot of 18g wires because thats just annoying and messy. if thats the best way to do it, ill do it. also any suggestions on where and how to run the wires? thanks guys

run a 10g to the fusebox and split from there to each guage

To what fuse exactly? I'm also installing a meth solenoid and wonder to what fuse on the fusebox would be correct to put or if its okay to put directly to the remote positive side battery.

Is there any problem taking power from red cable of stock boost gauge for other gauges?

well not taping a fuse you want to go straight to the jump start post in the engine bay (you can go directly to the batt in the trunk too but its longer and harder to do IMO. either way works thou)

I was going to say you could tap a fuse like the cig lighter or something but especially if your installing a solenoid your probably going to want to just do the 10g run that way you dont run into problems in the future. I wouldnt trust the stock boost guage wire of having enough juice for all of that. but then again it depends on how much current each guage draws and how much you need for the solenoid

I'm sorry what is a 10g? You mean connecting solenoid power cable to the positive side of the remote battery in the engine bay?

I already put it on the positive side of the remote battery and ground to the boost-safe cable of a AEM Meth controller. I want to know where is a 12v switched power source for a arm switch for my meth system
