Cybermanlonnie Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 hey guys, im gonna be throwing either a crescendo 2k or a dc 2k at about 2 ohms in the car for awhile. do you think it would be more beneficial for me to get a 270 amp alt first or a secondary battery. big 3 will be done and my stock alt is either 160 or 180. ill be upgrading everything eventually, just trying to see what yall think would be best first.

Cybermanlonnie Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 im thinking a d3100 or maybe waiting for the new line to come out and get a d4900, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08tahoe Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Oh sorry i misunderstood your post, I thought you were asking about replacing your stock battery. If you already replaced the stock batt and your only gonna be running the system at 2ohms for now then i say alt first and then secondary batt.

08tahoe Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 im thinking a d3100 or maybe waiting for the new line to come out and get a d4900, A d3100 would be nice or the new d7500 is the bigger one they are coming out with. I think that might be overkill for what you are running but id rather have overkill and have no voltage drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boom50cal Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 A few runs of 1/0 and an extra battery or two, maybe 3 if you have the money On 1/4/2013 at 9:31 PM, HatersGonnaHate said: Wow. 184 posts and I think you're a fucking asshole.

purplesyrup Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I dont know what your stock alt runs at, but mine is 150amp stock no extra battery, and the maximum I can clamp off of it is about 2100 watts, hope that helps. And that being said, when I was doing about 1600w RMS from past experience, the second battery eliminates light dim, and I ran like that for years with no big 3, or beefed up alt, never had a problem, now Im running a bc3500, and the most I can do so far is 2100w RMS on the stock 150amp, but with proper power should be doing 4k, but for the time being, no extra battery or big 3, which would make all the difference in the world. I simply do not have enough power for the amp, I will take care of it, but I unexpectedly have to replace an engine in a luxury car first, talk about fucking shit up.
