Will I need a new alternator


Recommended Posts

On a stock 105 amp alternator, will the Kinetik HC800 (front) and the Kinetik HC2400(Rear) be enough to power a btl on the sundown saz2000 without having to replace the alternator?

Also, if anyone has an idea of the voltage i would get, people have been saying 13.8, but that was a guess by a dude on ***.

Your voltage should be 14.2 to 14.4 if the batteries are charged and the alternator is working.

You should get a MLA module or find a how to thread on upgrading your voltage output of the alternator to around 15 to 15.3 if you don't want to get a HO alt.

Also what type of vehicle?

2003 Tahoe 3/5 drop on 26's with a 408cid Supercharged engine.

I am doing pretty much the same thing, 12" BTL on an SSL 4000.1 though, and I have been told that just the two batteries would be fine.

SUCCESS is a decision, NOT a dream. You have to name the price you are willing to pay to get it.

It would be a maxima.....but if the alt is close to the batt, ill prolly consider doing the big 3

Lots of variables... if the amp is clipping... low voltage if it's all clean you can get higher voltage... a lot of variables and a lot of tweaking.... but if you're getting a good stereo why not have the power to back it? :)

Spend the money on an alt and get a hc2000 instead. saves you close to 200 at least.

Heck I bet Rob at DC Power Inc. would hook you up nicely :D
