Jon Tyler Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Hey, So im purchasing 2 Rockford Fosgate T2 15s and one Rockford Fosgate T2500 - 1bdcp amp. This will all be installed into my 2000 Chevy Tahoe. i was wondering what Gauge wire, battery and alternator i would have to purchase along with this to make it really bump. i plan on installing a second battery obviously because one might not be able to handle the truck and speakers. The speakers and amp alone will run me about $2000, but my budget is about $3000 in total. So any suggestions? ( i also plan to upload videos and pictures of the build to this forum and to youtube ) Jon Funda 16 Car audio Enthusiast and Still learning Ragnarok Scenario Player, Youngblood #111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoudBimmer Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 I'll grab 320A alternator (you can find it used) and a xs power D3100(or something similar) along with 2 runs of 0 gauge. Should be under $1000 considering you get alternator and battery used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrzechNJ Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 dont go cheap on electrical.. it takes power to make power.. upgrade battery under the hood plus two big batteries in the back.. should be more than enough for single 2500 with decent HO alt.. 0 gauge or bigger only.. sometimes Loud is NOT pretty Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.

cuetip Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 why not just build a good box first and worry about the electrical later, or just do the big 3 for the time being.. but you will have alot of air space since it will be in a tahoe.. or just upgrade the battery under the hood to, also best wire is obvious run the 0 gauge FTW nothing smaller.. which i think the RF 2500 can have 0 gauge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
