Electrical for 5k opinions?

does anyone know if the xs voltage control module would let me max my alt closer to 15+ volt range. I used to have the mla unit years ago and i liked what it did. Thinking since i got this vcm it will work in sync with my xs alt and let me adjust it from inside the car?

Since I have more supply ( and ill be running at 2ohms on both my sub amp less draw) I do t need as much storage.

I Sa I stall it and watch voltage carefully. If its dropping below your comfort then upgrade to a bigger alt or add a second alt. If that's not an options batteries but make sure you charge them up good a few times week.

for sure man will do about the weekly charging. Also im in the same boat. Kicker mono amps are only 2 ohms stable. With impedance rise im thinking draw should be much lower huh?

Common grounds are better but yes a single 0guage wire can't handle 450 amps but I would hope op already new that.

would 2 runs of kicker ofc hyperflex do that? it should just fine right? and yes i have the big 3 done as well.

Honestly, I don't see you holding above 12v very well with what you have. The voltage module can help slightly. I bigger alt and less batteries is a better option imo.

For wiring I would want at least the capacity to handle 600amps. You will most likely pull between 400-500 from what you have said. 2 runs of 0 guahe rated at 300amps and grounds to match.
