[QUOTE="Kickstand, post: 8863954, member: 681842"] Small import engines don't have alts that are big enough to handle the draw. I had a 95 civic si (bought it brand new) I put a optima yellow top in it, back then its one of the best you could get I was running a RF punch 200 and a 4 channel alpine and my car looked like Stu's disco inferno driving down the road I upgraded the alt to 200 amps but at the time it was $800 Can. for it Now you can get one for half that price If everything is dimming then your alt cant handle the draw and eventually it will burn out [/QUOTE]
