I'd like to go with 0/1g Knu. Is this a cost efficient route? I don't think I can buy a big three kit because my alternator is next to my oil pan.

What accessories would be the best weight between cost and quality? (Terminals, etc.) Accessory list?

Knus cable is good but you pay for the quality. Most 1/0 is comparable in price anyways, as long as it is legit 1/0 pretty much any brand is fine.

Knu seems to be the best priced real gauge wire.

That's such a BOLD lie Knu wiring is much bigger than the competition price per gauge... Yes use the SAME 0/1 throughout your car do a 0/1 Knu BIG III then do a Knu run to the rear for your amplifier. Terminals are cheap and don't really matter just get the Knu.

I've already got Knu run to the rear, all that's left is the big three.

Then yes do Knu... Use OFC wire though so there is less corrosion, changing big III's every year is going to get annoying otherwise.

those are good, knu sells these garbage "kompression" fuse holders. They'd come loose every couple weeks from road vibrations even being boltted down on a flat surface.
