Saturday, November 22, 2008 - 04:06 GMT Starting with a stock vw GTI with a 120 Amp alternator. I want to add one sub to the system. What is about the highest wattage I can run with the stock electrical systems?

Sunday, November 23, 2008 - 03:02 GMT 120 amp can handle a lil more than most stock electrical. VW's do not use that much of such a strong amperage.
