Will I have a Voltage problem?

[B-rab]

Hey, in my 2003 lancer i plan on running a Hifi 1500D amp at 2 ohms for 1000w RMS... My Stock alternator is Eighty -90 amps. (not positive)

Will my car have trouble running this system?

I currently am running a crappy Sony Xplod 2 channel 340W RMS at 2 ohms and when i crank it i get some headlight dimming..

If i do need to upgrade, is a capacitor worth it? Or should I go with a new H.O Battery?

Thanks,

with 1000 watts, you should be okay with just getting a 2nd battery in the back near the amp. nothing too extreme, just look around @ kinetik, shuriken, or XS. something mid level should suffice for your application

If you ever plan on upgrading again I would go with a high output alternator.

Do this. The biggest batt you can fit up front. then get a new alt if the batt dosnt fix it and if those two dont work get a rear battery and call it a day,

I'd get a nice AGM style battery up front and do the big three or get a H.O. alt and do the big three

lol well those are the 3 options but i would say thats some serious overkill.

look up how to do the big 3, and do it. replace the front battery and add a second battery in the back. for example, a kinetik 1800 in front and another in the back will work. you dont want to mix battery types. your stock battery will be vented lead acid and the new battery will be AGM.
