[QUOTE="wolfey, post: 65532, member: 544404"] i wouldnt worry about damaging your electrical system either.. i have a shitty little 95 ford escort and my electrical system was fine.. If you are getting a 600.1 now instead of a 1200.1 that wont draw very much power.. the 1200.1 only draws a little over 100 amps at most.. and most of the time while you are playing it, it will only be drawing like less than 50 amps.. and an amp for your highs hardly draws any amps . but it helps your speakers perform at higher volumes.. I dont think you have to get an amp though.. But if you have the money go for it, dont be worried about your electrical system until you get like 2000 watts total in your system.. also its not as hard as you might think to upgrade an alternator... with a little bit of help i installed a new one in my car so that my lights wouldnt dim, and i didnt want to mess up my amp, cus i heard 81000d's draw a ton of current so i upped my alternator to a 95 amper from a 70 amp.. (notice how i'm more worried about my system than my car) It cost me 70 bucks but it was well worth it, only took about an hour and a half to put in the alternator.. Now i could do it in about 20 minutes though. Also if you are really worried, see how many amps your alternator you have now puts out.. if its over 75 you should be fine... [/QUOTE]
