Mike BeckI use #2, that way if I want to jump start it I know there is enough cable there to carry the load.

teamDepends on the length of the wire.

MasRacingI typically use whatever size battery cable is being used on the rest of the car for the reason stated above about jump starting the car with a dead battery. I have seen people get away with as small as 10 gauge when weight is a concern and and the lugs will only be used for trickle charging. To me it seems like an impractical way to save weight.
