Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 136 Registered: Sep-06 | someone told me that when running 2500w rms as a daily driver the batteries never have a chance to replenish themselves.That i would need two alternators to keep that kind of current. is that true? and if so, how difficult is it to install. someone said the 2nd one could replace the ac, is that right? what modifications need to be done? |

|
Bronze Member Username: MotomazeOnt Canada Post Number: 71 Registered: Sep-06 | no luck |
|
Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 143 Registered: Sep-06 | that amp will draw 250a at peak so that means i need two alternators, right? |
|
Bronze Member Username: MotomazeOnt Canada Post Number: 75 Registered: Sep-06 | yes keep the factory and add the 200amp |
|
Bronze Member Username: MotomazeOnt Canada Post Number: 76 Registered: Sep-06 | if you clip the signal on the amp will will draw 250 amps or u could just get the 2 200 amp alt |

Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 144 Registered: Sep-06 | can this project be taken on by the local mechanic? is there anything that i should know about it or a web site with helpful tips on instalation? |

Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIL USA Post Number: 658 Registered: Mar-06 | hit up nate at excessive amperage he can build a 300A custom alt for like 400$ i believe maybe 500$ but i think it also depends on the car too... www.exxcesiveamperage.com find somehwere to get 2nd alt. mounts.... is a b!tch i was looking for somwhere for over a year now.. |

Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 151 Registered: Sep-06 | I spoke to your boy NATE at excessive amperage. he was very helpful. told me exactly what i needed and how to get it. So i'll be going with 2 x 200 amp alt.. |
|
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, OR U.S. Post Number: 3873 Registered: Oct-05 | just get one bigger one. for 2500 rms, you dont need 2 alternators.. just get a 300a alt and a bat or two upgrade big 3, and you will be fine. theres no reason for two |
|
Bronze Member Username: KickdoorPost Number: 92 Registered: Oct-06 | same thing i was thinkin ^^^^ 300 amp would be fine i dont think youre gonna have it at full power for like 1 hour anyways..... |
|
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, OR U.S. Post Number: 3877 Registered: Oct-05 | its a waste of space for one, and for two, people who have two alts are runnin 6k +. |
|
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 2961 Registered: Dec-05 | just get GOOD batteries to help your system+ 300A alt |
|
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, OR U.S. Post Number: 3882 Registered: Oct-05 | some kinetics |
|
Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 153 Registered: Sep-06 | they said biggest i could go with my vehicle was 200 amp anyways. the batteries are mandatory, but someone told me that since it's a daily driver the batteries wouldn't have the opportunity to replenish themselves, and one 200 amp would produce 1800w rms at best. |
|
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, OR U.S. Post Number: 3883 Registered: Oct-05 | who said the biggest? the bigger amp alternator, doesnt always mean its a bigger alternator in size. you can ask nate, and ask him to see what he thinks. and you can basically only ru the batts if you have the HO alt that can help charge them. |
|
Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 154 Registered: Sep-06 | yeah, goin with two kinetics 1800 in front and 2400 in back. |
