Alternator Power question

Silver Member Username: Zero43Kyle, TX USA Post Number: 177 Registered: May-05 | I have the components needed to run my bi-amp system. The two amps I have draw approx. 200-225 amps at max which I don't plan to push but if a have a stock I beleive 135 amp alternator should I just get a 200-225 alterantor or would I need something higher around 300 or so to compensate for what the vehicle needs as well and not risk overtaxing the alternator at all and still have the ability to fully power the audio system and vehicle components. I have everything I need including 00 ga battery/alternator cables the alternator is the last piece I need. And lets consider that running two alternators is out of the question as well... |
