CJ18 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Run whatever size battery will fit your stock location up front and then 4 D3100s in the rear. I think I remember you saying that you have a 270a alt, so 4 3100s should be sufficient to keep your voltage solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, no way to save money on electrical when running that much power. You can do enough to get by but if you want to be able to play it and keep your voltage solid there is no cheap way to do it.

Nathan @ XSpower Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) If you are not going to compete and trying to get enough power while staying on a budget then look at the XP Series that will be shipping in 2-3 weeks. More affordable and still plenty of power.You would be looking at the XP2500 (size of a D2700), or XP3000 (size of D3100), which would give you the capacity. The XP Series is not made for under the hood applications, but work great for secondary power sources. Here are the discounted prices for forum members. XP3000 $319.99 (same size as D3100) XP2500 $289.99 (same size as D2700) XP2000 $249.99 (same size as D2400) XP950 $129.99 (same size as D975) XP750 $99.99 (same size as D680) Oh and the group buy should be starting up right around the time these ship, so depending on the dealer doing the group buy you could get them for even better prices.
