[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8347847, member: 650438"] Your vehicle might handle 1000 watts easily or only 400, you dont know, its different for every car. I had a corolla with an 80 amp alt on 1000 watts and it worked fine even without any big 3. while others have the same alt but die out at 400 watts. It doesnt matter, all you need to do is just get the setup in already. If it drains your electrical system too much then just lower the gains until your voltages are stable. You can guess all you want on how much your car MIGHT handle while all you really need to do is just get it in, use a digital multimeter and monitor your battery voltages and crank your system on the heaviest bass song you listen too and see how low the voltages get. general safe range is 12.8V to 14.4V. Then do electrical upgrades accordingly. [/QUOTE]
