upgrading electrical

[king ranch 5,000+ posts]

i have a 130amp alt and have big 3 done in 1/0.

i am going to have a zx850.4 running comps so thats 700rms then i will also either have a zx1500.1 running 1500rms at 2ohms or a sundown 1500 at .5ohms running around 1500rms

so basically i will have around 2200rms running on my electrical so with the upgrades i have as of now wat other upgrades should i look into, i was thinking of putting a batcap 2000 in the back and run power and ground power from the front to the batcap and put a hc1400-1800 upfront.

any one have input please post best and cheap way to go but where i dont have to worry bout blowing up either amps especially the sundown at .5ohms if i go with that amp

thanks

i suggest just putting a nice kinetik under the hood 1400hc or maybe bigger and see how things look. I wouldnt imagine much of an electrical strain with big 3 and alty.

im planning on doing a powermaster d5100 under the hood. i was gonna do the hc1400, until i found out about the d5100 and d925 in the back.

You'll probably find you need 2 batteries to stabilize the voltage. I'd definitely go with the dedicated pos and ground from front to rear. But start with the biggest one you can fit under the hood and keep an eye on your voltage.

bet that would work pretty good

well the curent battery i have upfront is the biggest duralast batt avaible its the gold series around 1000amps so i think that would possibly work for now and do the big 3 and get a batcap 2k in the back and run pos and neg to the back batt and watch the voltage and if needed get a hc1400-1800 upfront

You can also look at Powermaster. For the footprint and price, you get more.

how is powermaster
