N0oB Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 I have a Fi BTL N2 dual 2 sub woofer running of a Sundown saz 3500d at one ohm. I have a yellow top under the hood and will be getting another battery in the back, what size alternator do you think would be best to have no voltage drop without having to spend alot of money. I want to go with the DC power 220 amp alternator but I'm not sure if it is enough or not. I also don't really want to spend more and get the 270 amp. Any ideas? Thanks~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks~ well...noob,(sorry had to say it. lol) what alternator do you have now? as for the yellow top, keep it for now until you get your dc or mechman alternator, then switch it up to a xs power d3400(of d3100 depending what kind of vehicle you have).

I have a 2005 mitsubishi lancer ralliart, with the stock alternator (110 amps) yea you need to switch out the alternator for sure. and that yellow top, im pretty sure you still have some sort of voltage drop. i will let you know when i get my bc3500 from repair this week to see if the battery can keep the voltage on 3.5krms. i got a dc power 270 alternator with a xs power d3400 battery.
