Fuck, I miss constant power.. ugh..

Anyway, back to the topic at hand.. I think the most important thing that you need to know is that it takes power to make power.

You'll undeniably need considerably more electrical to power ~3300wrms, plus that 4 channel, and all your cars stock electronics.

No big 3 and stock alt, but want to run a 3000w amp. Not a good idea my friend. Don't waste money buying the 2500 and just get yourself a 1000w amp singe that is more fitting to what you will be able to handle.

I'm going to say a 240-270A alternator from DC, Mechman, or singer. upgrade your front bat to the largest XS power battery that will fit, and a D3100 in the rear.

You know itd be nice to have like a video of this. Like and average vehicle with a 100a stock alt. With test showing numerically how bad the voltage drop is on 3k. And what the limits are like oh about 1500w or w.e.

Then show step by step how much it improves. Big 3, xs batt, 2nd bat, alt etc.

Setup:


2010 Hyundai Elantra


Factory Unit via 4 chan NVX LOC


Excessive Amperage "H/O" Alt


Xs D3400/ Xs XP3000


Big 3. 2 Runs of +, 2 Runs of -


DD M3b and 2 12" AQ HDC4s

I pretty much second what everyone else has said. Have you thought about running 2/0 to the distribution block? Because I'm pretty sure that t2500-bdcp has 1/0 inputs, you could use one side of the distribution block for it and the other side for whatever else.
