Im running a 2600 watt amp, 1400 sub and a pair of 1000 watt 6x9's.My lights really dim and the battery goes flat quick. Do i need a bigger alternator?? If so which 1? Ive got a 1.0 litre J reg. Thanks

Alternator would be cheaper. Also worth picking up a TD battery too.

alternater from a scrappy bout ?15

battery from a shop bout ?50-60

if you get the battery it will still go flat at some point. the alternater is alwasy a good idea.

get some power caps too, cant really go wrong.

why have a TD Alternator when you could have one from a DeLorean, think about it
