Starting Electrical Finally Please Help


Recommended Posts

Hey guys. I am finally going to be starting on getting my electrical taken care of so I can run a Soundqubed 2200d. I am looking at getting a DC Power 170 amp alt, XS Power D2400 under the hood, XS Power XP3000 in the trunk with 1/0 knu OFC wire. My question is right now I only have enough to do either the alt or the D2400 under the hood. Which would be better to do first?

Thanks that what I thought but wanted to check. Will a dc power 170 with those two batteries hold that amp without major drop? I can get a 270 alt but it almost double the cost

270 is beast and will give you overhead for future upgrades.

That 170 amp should be fine for that amp and a 4 channel, I was recommend by singer, ohio gen and mechman to get a 160 amp and that would be sufficient for 3k rms with a couple supporting batteries.

Just be sure to plan ahead. I would go ahead and get the bigger alt if..

1) You are going to be keeping the car for atleast 3-5 more years and..

2) You think you may want to add more power later on down the line.

That way, you only have to by the alt once, and not upgrade next year when you want that 5k amp ;)

Did you get that scar tissue when you got your vagina installed?

Go with the bigger alt. Better to get it now then have to upgrade it later if you are eventually going to evently build your system bigger
