[QUOTE="Sub Bass Woofrz, post: 7868429, member: 644091"] I've been reading around this forum for quite a while. I've noticed a recurring theme of people recommending a lot of upgrades that i dont really see as necessary when it comes to electrical. Including upgrading alternators and adding batteries. While i understand it cannot hurt to upgrade these things im also skeptical about how necessary it is and how much good it will do at certain power levels. I heard a guys system who had a DD 2k amp plus a component amp on 4 DD 1500 series 15s. He claimed he had a stock 60 amp alternator and the system seemed to be working fine... Why the hell would i ever upgrade my alternator for 1500w of power when he 2500 watts on a 60 amp alt... I guess what im wondering at what point does it absolutely become necessary to upgrade the stock alternator on a car, rather than just upgrade it because it was recommended. [/QUOTE]
