Sid420 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 If I am running four Skar VVX 15's on two sound stream tarantula 2000d. Giving each woofer about 1000 watts a piece. Would I need a HO alt? If so how big. I am also doing two batteries in the back and xs 3400 under the hood. Big three is done also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillaCam Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 (edited) Yes you would and that seems like a lot of power for those unless you are running them at 4 ohms and if thats the case it would be a waste to get 2 of the amps. Edit: Didn't see that you were running 4 Edited December 12, 2011 by DjCrush Quote And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth..

Where on your engine is the alternator located? If on top then it may be easy enough to do yourself. Spend the "installation money" on the alt and do your own install.

If you want to have a HO alt, you need to be prepared to atleast put down 550 dollar, install not included. You won't get a good HO alt for 300, except when there is a BIG discount.

Rebel4055 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Don't go and get a powerbastard alt etc etc. Won't be the same as a DC or Mechman. Quote Rest In Peace mother.
