[Chris.Bloemker 10+ year member]

if i replace my ford battery with this HC600 Kinetik HC600 - Batteries and Battery Isolators - Sonic Electronix

Or should I just add it and run it in parrallel or series, i dont want to get into isolators and switches unless its the only way.

I have a ford taurus 2005

will I be able to run 2 alpine Type S subwoofers, with an alpine MRP-M500 and a crunch 4 channel amp running 4 5"x7" inch speakers.

BTW I have 0 gauge CCA wire with a tsunami fuse holder with volt meter.

and 0 guage ground

I have stock alternator

just run that battery up front and you will be fine you don't have a need to add a second battery it would just be a larger strain on your alt. and your voltage would actually go down a hair from not being able to sustain 14.4 on two battery's being it's factory

Ok thankyou, If I get an aleternator upgrade to around 170 a, would it be better?

Thats kinda small to be running all of your cars accessories plus amps id go with atleast a 1400

I wasn't sure about the battery's size but with that setup he should only need one battery

HC600 is not for under the hood use at all. Smallest under the hood battery kinetik would recommend in their line is the 1200
