think i need a new alternator, ive been readnig around but i decided to ask some poeple who will know better then me. i have a 95 lumina Ls im failry sure its the oem alt and i have no idea how old the battery is. alt is i think 100-105 amps. i been running 1 infinity 12.1 sub off a alpine mrv 100M amp for almst a year and notice some light dimming at times. now im running 2 infinity 12.1 off a JBL GTO601 .II amp, and when i get the volume up the subs hit very hard, and my lights dim big time. im not turing it up right now cuz i fear i might fry my alt, specially at red lights. what would you recommend?? 150-200amp alt?? will my car be ok lol, new battery??

and no the big 3 has not bee done, very hard in my vehicle due to limited engine bay space
