Ok I am going to upgrade my electrical.

Even with an 80 amp alt?

And where do I get that battery? Was it cheap?

yeah i was wondering where to get batteries too

Yeah I dont need a big 200 yellow top

Just going to be running about 1050 watts so id like a small battery on the cheaper side

I would base the battery on the size of alt. If you charge the batts on a charger it will help alot.

I am thinking maybe I should upgrade the alt? If I dont have to I really dont want to but am I really going to be ok with 2 amps one running 800 watts one running 200 watts with just the big three and a battery?

Ok so hows this sound for now

Going to do the big 3 with 0/1 gauge wire

I have a 4 gauge run for my sub amp then should I leave my 8 gauge run in there for my small amp? I think that would be better then using my distro block and running 8 guage to each amo because my sub amp is 800 watts.

Also would an 100 amp agu fuse on the 4 gauge run be enough? My amp is fused at 90.

EDIT:

Nvm im using my distro block

I would just keep the ground wire the same as your pos. wire . 100 amp fuse is ok for 1000 watts or so should be fine.

I was running 1500rms on my stock electrical just with the big 3 and never had a problem.

 

[darkhunter139 10+ year member]

Ok so I know there is no way to know for sure what I am going to need but does this sound good to try first

Big 3

Battery (Should I even get this or should I try it with just the big three first)

And what kind of battery should I look for? I dont think I need a yellow top or anything like that if its just going to be in the trunk and my system is only 800-1000 watts

 

[darkhunter139 10+ year member]

Can someone recommend a battery?

 

[missinglink 10+ year member]

Always try the free or less costly upgrades first for sure.

(battery) Its mostly opinion. If it fits your budget and your car good. You can always add more.

Powermaster, Kinetik, Optima, SPL-C

Pick one.

Whats the cheapest one I could get? Kinetik is pretty expensive right?
