[QUOTE="BryanGsu, post: 570347, member: 557018"] 14.4 X 85 amps= 1224 watts. I am sure you cars electrical system is drawing atleast 20% of the alt. output. So i see it being very hard to feed the amp peak power. But you are probably not using peak power very often. Get some caps. Also are your lights dimmng? My electrical system get so bad at times that my rpms take a hit, i have to hold 2000RPMs, with A/C off and that is with 2 1 f. caps. MMats d200hc, alpine V12 four channel, and a 200 watt kenwood. It is in a 2000 4 Runner. The caps are about 3 years old, does anyone think that they could not be holding a charge any longer? [/QUOTE]
