Budget? Electical system to back up a 2kwrms amp?

I want the best possible match for my FI-Qs when it comes to an amp so, let's just say there is no budget...

...but if I had a budget it'll be alittle over a G.

How much will it cost me to have my FI-Qs perform to their potential and not kill my car?

not possible without a better alternator and 0 guage wiring all around.

And that will cost?

you need to clarify what you want to do. 2 Q 12's is a big difference in output from 1 10.

Well, I want to outperform some of the people that live in the dorms here. I'll ask what they got and let ya'll know...

But say if I just want a 10" FI-Q, what will I need?

lots of options. a 1000+ rms amp @ 1 ohm. hifonics 1606 would work well on a budget.

also gives a little room for upgrade. you need to be sure and adjust your gains correctly no matter what amp you get.
