your alt. should do fine but i would recomend a battery upgrade, not anything radical but like a 1000 amp battery from autozone. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Uhh, if his alt is 75A how do you think its gonna recharge a 1000A battery ?

He probably has an import.

with a dinky lil 75A alt and a PG 1200.1 there is bound to be some nice dimmage

That alternator will have no problem charging that battery. What are you talking about?

I am definately no expert, but I'm gonna have to agree with supa. I have a bd1000a1 hooked up with a 110amp alt and there is a nice amount of dimming unless I am above 2k rpms. Stock battery no big 3. Battery in the trunk=good for running power wire and bad for big 3. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif
