You aren't losing power, if something was to go wrong it would be that the too much power was been sent through too small of gauge of wire for too great of a distance. That could cause the wire to melt.

With only 400wrms you should be fine with your wire but if you change you dont need to go to 4g because unless you change systems you arent going to use all that potential. But if you have extra money for 4 and dont mind wiring it all the way through then go ahead and change to 4 gauge
