[QUOTE="tukn18s, post: 2535593, member: 558004"] I have a 2000 ***** am, with stock electrical system except for my yellow top. I am going to be running a JBL gto1201.1 mono amp for the sub, and a jbl px300.4 for the component set. If you go by the rule that my good ole physics teacher taught me, watts=(volts x amps). Ok so my total rms wattage at any time is going to be about 1850 OR so, that is what we will say for the time being. Alrighty, my total watt value is now set for 1850, my desired voltage going to these here amps will be lets say, 14 volts, ok. We now have watts and volts. If we do a little figuring, the amps needed will be equal to the watts/volts. 1850/14=~132A. Most of you already know this, now we get to my question. I am going to buy a 200A alternator, little upgrade over stock. I currently have 4ag power running the amps. Should I bump it up to 2 or even 0, or with under 2000 watts will it not make that much of a difference? I am done now, please help me out! lol thanks kenny [/QUOTE]
