ILoveBass21 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 i am upgrading my system and i have decided to get 2 skar vvx 12s and i want to run some good power and get them moving a bit. i drive a 99 audi a4 and the alt puts out 125 amps, how much power can i run with this? and a big 3 done as well. i am thinking of getting a brz series amp from hifonics to start with until i save up for something better!

Guest Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 no more than 2000w. once you reach a tad under that range, i suggest you upgrade the underhood/trunk (wherever it is on your car) battery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILoveBass21 Posted August 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) optima sucks. you should find a different company that makes a battery that fits in your car. like xs power, etc. they do? i didnt know that, and the battery will do just fine starting? cause i have some piece of shit duralast in there now and it isnt more than a year old and it cant keep up to well, maybe i should run the car while i play but gas is spendy:Di should mention i dont play that long with it off! no more than 5 mins Edited August 8, 2012 by ILoveBass21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheena Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 i run 80 amp alt big 3 done and a G51 stock battery with a whopping 310 cranking amps. sk-1500.1 amp tuned with 0db DD-1 (thanks carlos) drop to about 13.5 full tilt at 2,250rpm on the freeway doing exactly 69mph. as far as what kranny said, you could probably swing 2k-2500W with an ACCEPTABLE amount of voltage drop. after you get an aftermarket battery such as XS power, you should see around the 13V range IMO.
