[QUOTE="aarunt1, post: 570306, member: 552930"] I don't know if this has been answered b4 so if it has please direct me but I really need this answered. I have a 98 Dodge Neon and I don't know how many Amps the Alternator is, but I think it might be around 85A so if my BP1200.1 pulls 120A max should I still be getting the 1200w all the time or no?

I don't know if I'm just used to it or wat but that doesnt sound right to me. I know my wiring is correct and my Mag is wired for 1 ohm and my amp is using 4G wire to the battery and ground.

I think most people would agree 1200w is alot of bass. SO i', guessing maybe its my Alternator? If my Alt is 85A then I gues that means it will only put out 85A max?
