why don't you try it and see how low the voltage goes down? Everyone is going to tell you to get a HO alternator and do the big 3.

i think you should do the big 3 before trying it.

well i can do the big 3 but i cant do anything else since my cars still under warranty....but even if it dropped low would it still put out more than my single amp? and if i burp them i only need to hold decent voltage for like a few seconds right

u don't need to put your foot on the gas and all that. with stock batt, alt, big 3, and 1/0ga. my voltage on my civic never dropped below 10.5V with the same power as 2 nine.1's (2400wrms). So you'll be fine since your alt is bigger than mine. Also, the big 3 is easy to uninstall, do it! you can pull it out before the lease is up with no problems

hhhmmmm well if i can get another nine.1 pretty cheap ill do it...but will running 2 mono amps put me in a different class? this weekend i was in the 501 and up trunk class...since my amp does like 700 at 4ohms

doing the big 3 wont void your warranty.

you'll probably be in a different class, but it depends on the league.

well im just tring to do like local comps thats all....i could keep my same amp and do a better battery up front and a different box just for comps where the port fires into the car with the seats down...does that sound like a good start?
