Alternator/ battery upgrades

[bs199sg]

Hey all, I believe my alternator and or battery can't supply my system with enough power. My total wattage is 6000 using stock alt/batt. I have a 2007 Ford Focus SE. If you coule point me in the right direction or give me some ideas of what to do with it would be great. It started with my subs clipping, and my headlights dimming with the bass.

What amp is giving you that 6k? And are you talking rms or max(lol) wattage?

6000 watts on a stock system would shut your vehicle off //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif. Start off by looking into a high output alternator

Yeah doing 6k on a focus is bs lol...I' am running 2600 rms on 2 batteries and a h/o alt and my max is probably like 4600 peak if that.
