I have around an 800-900 rms system with a cap!!! along with a couple of TV's, underbody neons, motorized Lambo doors, playstation, extra gauges, and a couple neons inside. If all that stuff matters??? |

I wouldn't personally want to destroy any of that expensive equipment for something as stupid as not having a large enough alternator. |

Silver Member Username: SolacedagonyNew Jersey US Post Number: 313 Registered: Oct-04 | That's just my personal opinion. I'd get like a 180 or 200, just to be safe. Add up the fuses on all your amps, and on the back of all the electronics, add up all the wattage/amperage ratings and see what everything comes to and add like 30A or 40A for everything in the car, if not more. Not sure how much power stuff you have in your car. |
