Anyone whos used Alpine Type X's, i need your thoughts


Recommended Posts

well my supra has a 80A stocker, and it came with leather power seats, which are now replaced with cloth manual seats. so theres some extra power. but the 135A should hold 2KW RMS, so ill be able to get a KW to each of the type Rs... for now.... ill grab a 200 in the spring and throw a second 2KW amp in and run the full 4KWRMS... but thats gonna cost some money.

My car comes with a factory 130amp and with 2500rms it's asking for help and is under alot of stress.

I suggest atleast a 200amp alt.

hey ernesto, there was this other guy on here who has a 2006 Expedition and he was running over 4000+rms power on a 130 amp (stock) alternator. wonder how'd he do that. i think his name was galasticmonkey, i maybe wrong.

Yeah I know who your talking about...I know he had multiple batteries but still I wouldn't suggest going that route....Upgrade the alt.

[glow=red,2,300]can we not post in quotes? its hard to find them[/glow]. anyway, theres a bunch of ppl who had some big ass systems running off stock alts.

I hate it when that happens...

I know of people running stock alts with big systems but still I would invest in a bigger alt.

Doesn't make sense to do every thing and invest so much money into things without investing into a better alt...Do it right the first time, it will save you $$ in the future ;)
