[QUOTE="treble-bass, post: 8517569, member: 670668"] I also have a 2015 Accord and was in contact with Ohio Generator about it earlier this year. At the time they were willing to build me one but they were requiring me to send them a new OEM Honda alternator to convert (not a cheap option). I opted not to proceed at the time but I may in the future if they haven't already got something available by the time I do. If yours is the EX-L with a 3.5L engine like mine, yours probably has the 135 amp stock alternator, which isn't too shabby for a stock unit. While I'm still holding off on the alternator upgrade, I did go ahead and upgrade the front battery to a Duralast AGM, did the big 3 wiring upgrade, and supplemented the amplifiers with an XS Power AGM battery in the trunk. I'm also using all 0/1 gauge pure copper cables. So far my electrical system seems to keep up with the demands I put on it but admittedly, I don't push my audio system overly hard. It's capable of over 5kW RMS total but I'd be surprised if it ever gets close to 2000 Watts (which pretty much shakes the crap out of me and makes my ears ring)! :P Anyway, I'll post again if I get any more information about H.O. alternator options for the 2015 Honda Accord.
