[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8672236, member: 650438"] dude, it doesnt matter. You can run a 100,000,000 watt amp to your car on a stock electrical just fine, you just will be using 500-1000 watts or whatever your stock electrical can handle. Whatever you think your system can handle based on your guesses, throw that out the window. Get a voltage meter and actually look at voltage drop and get a clear idea of what your system can handle. 650 watts isn't much at all. You can pop a group 31 battery back there and get a taramps hd 3000 and you'll be in business. You literally just set the gains with your voltage meter. Turn the gain up until your voltages hit around 13.0 volts during heavy drops, thats the most your alt can handle before it dips into battery reserve power this is setting gains via voltage drop, this literally allows you to run any giant amp on any system and keep safe doing so. However with a giant amp, you have successfully future proofed yourself. [/QUOTE]
