Chris Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 I'm wondering if my sub amps draw a max of 100amps combined, will I need to upgrade the big 3 or will it be fine with 2 hc600's, a 6 farad cap, and 2 runs of 4gauge?

Slinky Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 you would be fine without it, but if you have some large power wire already, i would go ahead and put it in.

Chris Posted February 6, 2007 Author Report Posted February 6, 2007 I dont have anything bigger than 4gauge lyin around but thanks, thats kinda what I was figuring. I'm just trying to make sure my stock charging system can handle stuff without a new alt.

sean 371 Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 i have a reg battery up front and a red top in back. I thought you werent sposed to run an extra battery cause stock alternator wouldnt be able to handle charging both?

Slinky Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 a stock alt can keep two batteries fairly well. but no more than two.
