i noticed that my lights were dimming when the bass kicks.

is it normal for the lights to dim even if i have a HO alt?

You shouldnt be dimming lights with what you are running and with those electrical upgrades. I would get an external battery in the back and see if that helps.

Big 3 for sure if you havent already.

Reserve is key on these big systems with high current demands. It sounds like you have a good set up but may need another battery.

Positive for sure the ground bolt it to the (clean off)frame

I tried mine both ways now mine run straight from the alt back.
