i just bought a new sound system for my car and i took it to my local audio installer and he said that my car would just struggle to power it
so i asked if i bought a bigger battery and alternater would that work he said it would but i would also need a power cap
when i asked what size battery and alternater i would need he said said he didnt know which has left me in a pickle because i dont know who else to ask so ive tried here to see if anyone can help
my car is a

suzuki vitara jlx 2door soft top 1992 model

and the battery is only small so im assuming that the alternater is only small to
ill list the amps below that i bought

HIFONICS GENERATION XX SERIES XX COLOSSUS II 3,200 WATT RMS DUAL MONO-BLOCK CAR AMPLIFIER

and i bought a 4 channel amp to give the 4 car door speakers better sound thats a
JENSEN JPA-460 600w 4/3/2 CHANNEL CAR AMPLIFIER AMP

please if someone knows could they tell me or point me in a direction on what size battery and alternater i would need and where id be best buying one from
also would i need a certain type to fit my car or do most alts fit most cars.

id takeyour alt. and have it re-wound by a local alternator specialist itshouldnt costyou over 250 bucks. as a stinger alt. built for systems are really expensive like in the 700-100 dollar range.

you dont need a capacitor, they are even harder on the charging system, instead get an additional battey for the trunk and also replace the underhood one with the same type that you are using in the trunk. id say you want at least a 150 amp alternator. so if you have itre-wound tell the man what amperage you want from it.

yes that is a hell of an amp look for batteries with at least 140 researve capacity and 1000 cca.

really and trully, stiffening capacitor's are murder on a charging system thatis already having trouble keeping the voltage up to par, and an extra battery in the trunk (or 2.lol) acts like a stiffening cap. whereas it has juice ready at hand to send tothat amp on demand.
