[QUOTE="travisx01, post: 542108, member: 550408"] It all depends on how much load the stock components are creating on the system. I had a little mazda protege with a 60 amp alternator that ran a 800 watt rms amplifier with no problems, as long as i didnt run AC, lights etc... Say for example his stock components are drawing 55 amps then with the amp he is drawing a minimal 75 amps with volume up. That would eventually lead to a loss of power from the battery. If lights flash with volume up, you're drawing more than your alternator can supply. This seems to be a new trend or something LOL. [/QUOTE]
