Sorted 0gage wire is all you need

Make sure you use a sealed for life battery, or a gel battery if you are going to doing this as other batteries give off fumes and can be dangerous if you have a crash.

Ive just done this with 4 gauge wire and its struggling to crank over at times. Bought the wire from maplin as I was advised it would work

Sounds like an earthing Problem. I have 3 New earths in the engine bay with Thicker Copper Cable. and i have a 4AWG Earth cable from the battery. Make sure all contact points are on bare metal and greased up
