Does anyone know the stock alternator rating? I can't seem to find it, I even looked on the alternator itself, couldn't find anything.
My reason asking is because I was dimming on 500watts rms with a MTX 9500, now that I have 2 MTX 9500's and i'll be pushing 1500watts. I don't know what to do, get a new alternator? Get another battery in the truck? I have a Optima Yellowtop in the front, and a 2.2 farad capacitor, which isn't doing jack ****. and i'm getting my system installed this weekend (hopefully). Any thoughts?
