Phoenix Gold Phorum

I have a decent pair of Tsunami +/- battery terminals that have 2 1/0 inputs and 2 8 Gauge inputs, but I need one with a couple more 8 gauge inputs.

Anyone seen one that has 2 1/0 inputs and 4 8 gauge inputs?

I just had HID's retrofitted into my projectors and I am one terminal input short for my positive connections so I had to run a splitter block to a bigger wire and then to the terminal but I would rather not use the splitter. It is extra clutter.

Makes me really appreciate the old Tsunami Optima battery topper I had a few years ago, that thing was a monster...it had about 6 inputs on each side. They can still be had but I don't have an Optima any more.

the PG tmc ones (which are pretty hard to find now) had 2 x 1/0, + 1 x 8awg, + had a ring bolt on the back, so potentially, they could hold more if you put more rings in the back.

is running a cable to a d-block not an option?

yea that is what I was going to recomend, the one that came with the akit had 2- 1/0 and one 4 out as well as the ring that allows you to add as many as you want. I am actually doing something similar with my HIDs I just installed and just running the 4 out into one of the old Pg fuse holders to properly fuse my low/highs and fogs. They are still on the bay for $10-14.

Yeah that's what I am probably going to do but I am not too happy about it. At least that way I could do two runs of 1/0, 1 for the amp distri block, 1 for the engine bay distri block. With the space I have, it just won't be as clean as I like.

I also don't want to drill into the car in the engine bay because I might be trading in for a 2011 shortly, plus with my luck, I will probably f something up terribly drilling into the bay...the Tsunami Battery top with Optima Yellow would work great but is a 300 dollar combo I don't want to pay for right now...if I was even lucky enough to find a battery top.

Double side taped the small distri block that I was using to the battery jacket so at least it isn't just floating around, I just hope it stays, then I will be all set.

a screw hole or two in the engine bay is not going to effect the resale. Nothing else just do a good job, keep it neat and clean and you might add a couple bucks to the value to the right person that wants hids. Like I said check out the old blocks with the clear plastic cases, just got one myself a few weeks back for mine.

What are they called again, PG TMS terminals?

Turns out I am going to be trading in for a 2011 Wrx Limited in the next few weeks and that already comes with HID's so my Tsunami terminals should be ok, but I am still curious what those PG terminals are called for future reference.

I am going to have to buy some of those crimpable oem looking terminals from walmart I think before I drop it off so I can save my terminals for the 2011.

man I have two sets of them(just got the 2nd set for the 2nd battery I am adding) and can't remember for the life of me.
