[QUOTE="jrwalte, post: 4797386, member: 584454"] 250 amps is not overkill for 2600RMS. With the HO alt you could probably get by with your existing batteries and not have to add more. If you were demanding true 2600 watts you'd be looking at around 213-225 amperes, and that's not including what your car needs. You must do the big 3 and you'll have to upgrade all wiring to 1/0 wire. If you currently ground your rear bat to the chassis, you may find that your chassis cannot handle that much current and have to do a dedicated ground from front to rear. [/QUOTE]
