i resently had to change my altornator and they told me the altornator they put in is the highest amprage one they could find for my car(110amps), but it's just doesn't have enought power for my stereo and for the car. do any of you stereo guys know where i can find maybe a 200 amp altornator that would fit the 3rg gen?

come on guys

i know someone has tryed it. you guys with powerfull stereos couldn't possible power it properly with a 110 amp altornator. i need to know before it blows again, the guy at the shop said it's only a matter of time. i'm getting pissed listening to the stereo with the volume down to minimize the draw on the altornator, so help me out please.

i'm using a 1800watt amp for the bass and i also have a computer in there for mp3, tracking, etc.. so if you can tell me how i can power all this with out changing the altornator that would help too.

Find a phoenix gold authorized dealer and ask about alternator packages. They are not cheap! But it will stop your problems. Also consider a multiple battery system with an isolator, This setup is lots cheaper, and will provide decent results. Also use a large capacitor on the bass amp, it will help with the sudden current draw created by deep bass notes.
