[QUOTE="Fusion_FREAK, post: 4903642, member: 580664"] I get the basic info, but I don't see how, say a 600rms amp, with a fuse rating of 60 amps only has a 30 amp or so continuous current draw. I was two amps, with a combined fuse rating of 100 amps, roughly 1000 rms, with a stock ~65 amp alternator. The 6th gen Civics, and some newer models had a tiny *** battery. My CCa rating on my battery is 425A or so. I was getting head light dim, then I did the Big 3, but not my alt to battery wire, because it's a b1tch to get to my alt. I then upgraded to HID headlights, and lost the headlight dim, but the interior and gauge lights would sometimes dim a little on hard notes, but my voltage never went below about 12.5 volts at idle. I think you'll be fine. Do the Big 3, and get a bigger upfront battery with a high CCA rating. [/QUOTE]
