Alpine MRP-M1000 and MRP-F250. You probably gonna have to add a piece of board to support your amp. As you can see, I lost my split fold down capabity adding the support. I don't haul anything in the Max plus I have my sub box. I just gotta rember to bring the seats down at the same time.

Amps without caps? I would have at least .5 farad, or a bigger alternator. Maybe a solid battery(interstate or yellow top) is enough, but 1000watts, running what a 30amp fuse? I read a quote about the superchargers or turbos that has stuck with me. We are "exceeding the wildest expectations of nissan engineers"-I would think electrical would need a boost too. Maybe not?

It may be here in this thread when I first did it: http://www.6thgenmaxima.org/forums/a...g-started.html

But for the most part you just have to climb in there and start taking clips out. It's not that hard, just takes a little time underneath.

if you have space for it, box-mounted is the way to go
