The size of alt depends on how many batteries you will get and how you gonna wire your system..

for single aq at 1 ohm you be fine with 300 amp alt with upgraded battery under the hood and two/ three batteries in the back for example xp3000 ..

3 runs of 0 gauge (two pos one neg) u can always add more.. but this is the minimum imo..

btw. Im from Trenton area and have a couple friends in Lyndhurst and Garfield ;)

sometimes Loud is NOT pretty

Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.

Many people are using these batteries.. Get a couple and see what happens.. you can always add since $90 per each is not that bad!
