I'd go to ACC power with your red wire so it works in ACC and IGN, and IIRC, the memory wire is yellow and I'd take that one to the CLOCK circuit that's always hot.

kinda depends on how big your stereo is going to be i guess. if your just going back to sort-of stock then all previous suggestions are more than enough. if youre going to run subs and all, you may need a dedicated big line (4 gauge or so ) with a inline fuse, 30 amp maybe? tunes are almost as good as a good exhaust.
