[QUOTE="jdawg90, post: 8153247, member: 583730"] I think you'd be okay with 1500w monoamp and a 4 channel. You might get away with more, you might not. You could always get a 2000-2500w amp, set the gain with a multimeter and see how your voltage is, if it is dropping too low back off the gain until you are happy with your voltage drops. I had a truck with a 130a alt and would drop into the low 11's with a zx1500.1, my last car had a 85a alt and I was in the low 12's if I remember right with a saz-1500d@1 so it really depends. I think my voltage issues on the truck may have been an issue with the computer controlling the alternator. [/QUOTE]
