Wat kind of electrical would you need to properly run two sundown 3500s strapped @ 1 ohm full tilt.


Recommended Posts

If it were me, id run atleast one 300+amp alt, or duals if its possible on the vehicle. Biggest XS power Batt you can fit under the hood, Big three in 1/0. Atleast 4 Runs of 1/0 (2+/2-) and at least two XS D3100s or the XP3000s. Notice i said atleast, no such thing as overkill on electrical.

I see I alreadly have a mechman 330, four kinetik hc2400s, four runs of 0 guage , optima up front ,,, problem is I'm dropping below 13 at full tilt while sitting at idle.

Theres your problem, most bigger alts like your mechman 330 amp dont put out much at idle, whats your voltage like when holding about 2k RPM?

if you have kinetik already, get 2 or 3 more 2400's, or buy a dual alt set up (i think this would help more).
