[QUOTE="loopkiller, post: 5709029, member: 601690"] My recommendation would be to try that system on the stock alt, but you for sure will need better battery power. The best bet would be two matching batteries. One under the hood and one in the trunk. For that setup, they could be relatively small units. The Kinetik HC1200 or the Deka 9A78DT would be my choice.
