still gonna need some reserve even with a ho alt and that amp does way over 2500 at 1 ohm too. probably closer to 3200. i say a xs d3400. and a ho alt.
With the vehicle running all power is drawn from the alternator. If it's large enough to prevent voltage drop his reserve won't matter.

hoping wont have to go thar route, hopefully this yellow top will help me out enough

 
Well i put did the big 3 and added the yellow top and even wired the subs at 4 ohms and its beter just at full tilt the amp still shuts off

Because you clearly didn't read what I said.

However if you truly have it wired at 4 ohm now I suspect your problem lies elsewhere. What method did you use to set your gain?

Also, monitor your voltage AT THE AMPLIFIER TERMINALS while running at full tilt. Report back with results.
