[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8920339, member: 689267"] That year, the model 1500 was usually equipped with a 145A to 160A Alt, stock. Installing a higher-ish output 250A alt is not going to help when the car is off or sitting at idle, showing off the system to others. A $350.00 Titan8 will always help, on or off, and it's nomore complicated, usually a lot easier than instaling upgraded alternator. Not everyone is keen on getting into an engine compartment and changing out an alternator or doing the big three, for that matter, or ensuring that they install a smaller belt or larger pulley should one or the other be the only option to get out of it what is needed. Upgrading an alternator for a 2500-watt system is the last thing I'd do, personally. As originally suggested, if this is for a daily driver, an aux battery would be my first option, not the 2nd option. [/QUOTE]
