If you want my advice, change to an IB setup through the ski hole and run more SPL with better SQ and less rattle on 1/3 the power.

Battery ground is going to be 0AWG soon. But as you said, I am not expecting a lot of difference.
Re: IB through ski hole, kaigoss in my experience, IB on speaker shelf always worked better for me. And trust me on this, it works really really good. (and Audi / Merc follows the same method)

I will be updating PDX 1.1000 ---> JL 1000/1 soon and IB driver should sort it out.
