With 160 amp alt and only 1 extra batt what can I get away with?

[Kelvartis]

Stock alt is 60. I can get a 160 pretty easily.

Can I get an American Bass 200.1 or 450.1 to run off this? Also got two JL audio 300's for the mids / highs already.

Really don't have subs or bass amp picked out yet.

that 200.1 would all day.... that 450.1 may be too much! I got 2960 outta my kicker with same setup.......

why you gonna run 2 300 jl's? Id sell those and get a ppi... those jls are quality but also a little power hungry... so your gonna run three amps?

160 ismt real great ..and how big of a extra batt? Is ur under hood batt a good agm. I see problems with the 200.1 amd no way on the 450

Small car, limited on space. biggest bolt in alt I can find is 160-200 amps. Would it improve if I ran 2 extra batteries and held restraint to get a 200.1?

Are there any similar amps I should be looking at?

Have you looked in DC, Mechman, or Singer alts?

for 550$ I could get a 240amp

But for that price I could also get a few batteries.
