[QUOTE="ColterDC, post: 7074510, member: 612869"] 96 mustang GT with stock alternator, battery and mach stereo system. I believe the stock alternator is 110 amp. Only added 1 12 inch sub with 1000w amp. Battery voltage reads 12.75 with car off. With car idling it reads 14.6, but when I turn on the stereo the voltage starts dropping and will be at 14.4 within a minute or 2. I have not driven or let the car idle long enough to see how far the voltage continues to drop. Would the big 3 solve this problem or do I need to do the big 3 and get a new alternator or do I have some other problem? [/QUOTE]
