Ok, I asked because I was going to tell you to meet up and try to help you out.

If your referring to 1500 rms, I could say to get an alternator double the amperage you currently have at idle speed(just to have a little extra ), 0 gauge wiring with big 3(better with OFC wire) and a big AGM battery near the amps. That should be all.

Send me a PM with the info of your vehicle to see if I can help you, but that will be tomorrow, because I'm exhausted and I need some rest.
