[QUOTE="Boulderguy, post: 2510619, member: 572916"] Here's what you need to know about that setup - You can't just throw that amp in & expect a stock electrical system to keep up. At full tilt it's probably pulling 140+ amps. I doubt your alternator can make that much, not to mention power the rest of the car at the same time. If you're serious about using it you'll HAVE to upgrade the alternator. Ironically, adding a second battery without an isolator actually makes things worse. [/QUOTE]
