If you have the DVC 4 Ohm versions, go with either one of the following wired in Parallel for a 1 Ohm Load.: Audioque AQ2200D: http://www.audioque.com/AQ2200D-Amplifier_p_31.html Sundown Audio SAZ-2500D: http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/store/products/Sundown-Audio-SAZ%252d2500D.ht ml If you have the DVC 2 Ohm versions, go with either one of the following wired in Series/Parallel to create a 2 Ohm Load: Kicker ZX2500.1: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_21959_Kicker-ZX2500.1-10ZX2500.1.html Rockford Fosgate T2500-1bdCP: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_26141_Rockford-Fosgate-T2500-1bdCP-2010-Mode l.html If you were planning on installing one Amplifier per T2 (DVC 2 Ohm versions), then I would suggest looking into two of the follow Amplifiers below wired in Parallel for a 1 Ohm Load: Audioque AQ1200D: http://www.audioque.com/AQ1200D-Amplifier_p_30.html Sundown Audio SAX-1200D: http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/store/products/Sundown-Audio-SAX%252d1200D.ht ml |

If you are on a budget, go with the AQ2200D. If a budget is not a problem, go with the SAZ-2500D. Both links are above in my first post. |

Gold Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 1316 Registered: Jun-06 | Yes, you will need to purchase a HO Alternator. If you do not know where to look for one, I suggest getting ahold of Nate at www.excessiveamperage.com. As far as a second Battery goes, it is not manditory to install another Battery. As long as your main battery under the hood is powerfull enough, you will be fine. Here is a link to where you can read up on the "Big 3" upgrade: http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp~TID~73496~PN~1 |
