My mechman 370a is 240a at idle.. You don't need one that large. A 250a is more than enough. Also the more amps an alternator produces the higher you have to spend it to get some power out of it.you would have better idle output with a 180a-200a over a 350a alternator

a system for a 2005 jeep grand cherokee. and by sql i mean sound quality level. so no big bang bang subs, an all around good rich sound.

i plan on doing alpine PDX-V9 with 2 sets of alpine SPR-60C comps (all 4 doors) and a single 12" dayton ultimax sub.

Get a singer or mechman.

hairpin 6 phase is the kind of alt you want and no harm will be done by going bigger.

I actually prefer to go bigger than what I need.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
