Quick couple questions on electrical systems

running 2500rms....what size alt and what batts?
im guesing about a 250A alt, new batt under the hood, and another batt in the trunk?
clarify this for me please


btw, before anyone makes any jokes about why a person with 6k+ posts is asking this question, its cause i have never bothered to learn 2 sh1ts about this stuff cause i thought i would never be able to convince my dad to let me do electrical upgrades to my car (which he pays for)

optimas are alot lower capacity, they are normally about 1000cca where a kinetik 2400 is about 2500cca

HO alt as big as you can get, and a new battery would be optimal for that setup. 2nd battery isn't needed.

Also look in to Oddssey batteries. They are built a lot tougher than Kinetik and have a lot more power than Optima.

Yea,Yanks.Get the biggest that you can fit in there.Make sure you measure first and remember...you can't bend a battery to get it to fit :-) That's where a lot of people make their mistakes when measuring for a batt.
