quick question on my car

[BassAddict32]

So I recently just got a 93 Accord. I just picked up a Mofo 12" for it. DVC 4 ohm so gonna use Audiopipe 3k on it.

Now, my car has a tiny Duracell battery up front.I also notice that at times, if I shift through gears, my voltage seems to be at 12.7 volts.

So is my alt going bad? Is the battery too small?

Also, which would be the better route, a new battery up front and a second in the back or new battery up front and HO alt?

take your car to autozone and have your battery and altenator tested. they do it for free. it sounds like you may have a dead cell in your battery. i one about a month ago and more common in summer heat. that will take a lot of the guess work out of whaf direction to go in. a correctly functioning battery and altenator should have no problem running one pa mofo 12, as long as you dont beat too long with the engine off.

I found it to be my terminals. I had a bad positive terminal and it wasn't causing proper connection. New terminals, 4 ga wire, and everything hidden/installed, it works like champ now!
