cloud77 Posted February 3, 2013 Report Posted February 3, 2013 look into an xs power d1200 series or something in that regard. Remember if you have 2 different batteries with different amp ratings they will not work together as well than if they are both the same battery. 2004 Grand Prix GT (2) 12" RE XXXs (04/05 XBL^2) 5 cu. ft tuned @ 35 Hz MMATS HD4000.05 MMATS SQ4100 Infinity Kappa components Juice Box black cherry Duralast platinum group 34 1/0 KNU OFC, 2/0 welding Singer 250A
Carbon Posted February 3, 2013 Report Posted February 3, 2013 2000 watt amp and radio, headlights that about all I would guess a group 34 would work under your hood. I would recommend these batteries in the order they are listed -XS Power -Exide -Kinetic -Yellowtop

What I was implying was the d1200 squared would be a great match. Check amp ratings for batteries and you'll see what I'm saying. 2004 Grand Prix GT (2) 12" RE XXXs (04/05 XBL^2) 5 cu. ft tuned @ 35 Hz MMATS HD4000.05 MMATS SQ4100 Infinity Kappa components Juice Box black cherry Duralast platinum group 34 1/0 KNU OFC, 2/0 welding Singer 250A

Check amp ratings for batteries and you'll see what I'm saying. im not saying he needs to run a d3100. im just saying he can mix any xs power with any other xs power regardless of amp rating.. the smaller xs battery wont drag on the bigger xs battery as they are both 12 volt batteries my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/
