Can someone tell me what i need to run what i have in mind. A AQ2200 and AQ 4x90. I have a atock 105amp alt. and the wire to do my big 3 and 1/0 wire kit for my amps. have an Interstate batt under hood. First option would be upgrade batt with Deka and add a second 9a31 Deka in back. Second option upgrade hood batt and add HO alt not sure how big.Third option do both 1and 2. But if i dont need all i wont,put that money towards something else //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/greedy.gif.5a53e6246569d7ab79867170f3b06629.gif

4 ga min for your wire I would jsut run 1/0 wire size so you can upgrade in the future/ Make sure you have a battery with a good reserve power. This lets you listen to your stereo longer with out charging it when sitting. Hook up your system see how it sound see if the headlights or dash lights dim if they do add a cap if that doesnt help had a 130 amp GM alternator and you should be set.

With a AQ2200 I dont think you would need a HO Alt, I would start off with and upgraded batterys up front such as PowerMaster 2400, which I think those dimensions on that battery will fit, and a PowerMaster 2400 in the back by the amp if the battery up front isnt enough. You should be able to run that + the Big 3 and do just fine.

Powermaster makes 140-150 amp alts that you can get off summit racing for under 200 (about 80 amps at idle) and knukonceptz has a 160 amp alt that does about 90 amps at Idle for 225. both more than likely make 30 or so more amps at idle than your stocker and have more pizzaz on the upper rpm.
