My amplifier is a Rockford Fosgate Prime 1000D
http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_25750_Rockford...
My car battery ranges from 12V (Engine off) to 13.6 - 13.8 V (Engine running)
I have a 700CCA battery, and I have not installed a big three kit yet.
What do you think my RMS will be?
Also, if I pinch my wire terminal and snip it to make it forked and pinched, would I be able to fit 2 AWG on this amplifier?
I bought wide large ringed terminals for my other amplifier setup a long time back and when I did this it worked out. Was just wondering if it would work for 2 AWG in this situation.
Would if even be worth it to go up to 2 AWG if I'm running OFC with a 110A alt? I don't think I'll see voltage drops.

True RMS with that amp:
944.4444 RMS @ 13.6V
951.3888 RMS @ 13.7V
958.3333 RMS @ 13.8V
Average of all RMS ratings: 951.7222 RMS
You will get around 952 RMS when the car is running.
I DO NOT recommend going a higher gauge wire then what the maximum is, I have never personally done it so I can't really say what will happen. My guess is that your amp could have some electrical problems. You will be perfectly fine with legit 4 AWG.
