Default power setup

Just not sure what i would need to upgrade to accomodate for a 2500watt setup. Going to run 3 amps (2 13w7's, one amp each, and a 4-6channel for interior speakers). I'm guessing a dry-cell and a bigger alternator right?

Default RE: power setup

U could leave stock alt if u wanted to but then ud have to rely on back up batts. If you go that way id say ur gonna need atleast1 yellow top. I run my stock altand my1 yellow top just for audio and im running a USAmps 2000x and a Zapco Z400 and i can sit all day long with lighs on going full tilt with no flickering!! But thats just me.
