Alright guys. Everything is ordered and I have a few more questions left if anyone can help me, it sure would be appreciated like times infinity. well not infinity but you get the point. anyways to the question.

I'll be running anywhere from 5-7KwRMS of power in my Yukon, which is better for my situation, I won't be pushing all that power all day or most of the time, mainly like 3k to 5k maybe. and on ocasions 7k if it reaches that. A 300amp alt from iraggi with 135amps at idle, or a dual alt setup. For dual, 200amp x 2? or should I do more? And if so, can someone tell me who does this? I need links mainly and companies so I know who to go to. Thanks in advance and happy bumppin..

I would do a 2 250 amp alts. I get all my alts from HO Alternators. I did an 03 yukon last christmas, with around 14,000 rms for the street, and did 2 250's and 12 yellow tops, never dropped below 13.7 volts.

anyone know if hoalts and excessive will have the dual alts setup and ready to install with the brackets? shawn, did hoalts do that for you or did you need to get a bracket yourself? just wondering.

not sure but seriously, if you just email nathan and tell him what you are wanting, such as how many watts you plan on running RMS, he will tell you what you need and what he can do for you

Yeah I'll do so, I think I already contact hoalts but havent gotten a call or email yet, but I'll check with excessive also. How about iraggi on ebay. Anyone familiar with him? I can just get two 250amps from him and get the bracket myself.

Iraggi makes some good stuff. i have a Iraggi alt in my car, putting one in a friend's car. good stuff.

Ohio Gen has some dual alt kits, but they are prob the most expencive out of the companies listed and will only sell to a store, not an individual...

for price and quality, who would you go to? I'm sure I can get a store to get me one, no problem. But if its "way" more expensive than the others then I'll have to stick to iraggi or hoalt, and maybe excessive.
