"The Big 3" 1) Motor to Chassis Ground, 2) Alternator to Battery Positive, 3) Battery Negative to Chassis Ground... Side Note: make sure ALL grounds are good metal to metal (remove paint). A Good 4ga. wire in the shortest runs possible the preffered wiring.
Your vehicle uses at least a stock 105amp alternator... good for now, but you will probably have some light dimming. You may want to look into a slightly larger alt down the road... something in the 160-200amp range.

lol, girls like em bigger, I guess that's all I gotta say... but all that aside, two 12" Type-R's new or old, will get loud. And You can grab them at decent prices also.
