At least the front. There is no magic solution, but its always better to have a better electrical than you need.

i would check the resting voltage of your current battery and check charging voltage of alt..and do big 3. Then go from there

Def do this first!

For the big 3. You need to upgrade the positive wire from the battery to the alternator. The negatives from the battery to the chassis and engine block ground. Another that's beneficial is grounding the alternator case also.

it is prolly only rated for that power at 14.4v. So you do likely have closer to 1000w.

XS are good batteries if thats what you decide. For sure do big 3 though there is a tutorial if you need one at the top of this forum
