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

this will be powering 2x 4000watt subwoofers

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.
also if possible if i list the items i bought would someone be able to have a look and send me a wiring diagram or a step by step guide to explain/show how i would wire it up as it would save me alot of money


the items i bought ill list below

1. none of those links work
2. i'm sorry you bought everything except the hifonics.
3. what subs did you buy (i shudder to think)
4. with that many watts you need a 250 amp alternator and a kinetic HC2400
5. i hope you sell your stuff and start over

you shoulda came here first b4 you bought all your stuff these guys could of prolly picked you a SETUP THATS 10x BETTER THAN THE ONE YOU HAVE NOW FOR PROLLY LESS THAN YOU PAID FOR THAT STUFF. subs and amp arent bad i hear those strokers are pretty good subs and the amp is above average some like it some dont. but forget about the power cap you definitely dont need to waste your money on that use the money from the cap to buy 0 guage wire so you can get your BIG 3 done. someone here will prolly post a link for you if you dont kno what that is your prolly lookin at anywhere from 5-8 hundred bucks worth of electrical upgrades depending on how much your alternator is thats why im not even bothering with running that much power i say you sell all that stuff and start over.

I believe you would be beter off with one 15 in sub and a 1500- 2000 watt amp.you would have just as much cone area as the two 10s and with the smaller amp you could get away without the big alt.maybe just a decent 3 to 5 farad cap
