this is what i have... and see where i go from here.. thinking of new subs....im kinda stuck on where to go..
3x alpine type r's 12' dual voice 4ohm
audio pipe 3000 (got it for cheap so i said why not..)
hifonics Brutus 2600 (cheap, but it fried.. i was told it was a cheap fix. will post pics later)
4 gauge wiring kit
20' 0 gauge
and a kenwood deck
and a lot of 8 gauge for the wiring.

i was thinking of getting 2 batteries for the trunk and get a box made tuned to 29 with the 3 type r's and get more 0 gauge for the big 3 and odd wiring for ground and batteries... all on the ap3000
then save for a ho alt and mids n highs..

or were should i go? im broke so it takes me a bit to save... gotta do odd paint jobs for extra cash lol...but thinking 2 15's also..

ho alt>more batteries

can't charge more batteries if your alt won't put out the power.

rewiring 0 gauge and new box would be a good start.

Depending on how many amps it will be putting out they run around 250-400 . iraggi didnt have an alt that would work on my crownvic so i talked to matt at mechman and they were gonna custom fab one to fit my car for 410. Im just waiting on my paycheck to order it up.

Also...the regulator on the alternator determines how many volts it will be charging to, be sure for example if your alternator charges to 16 volts, get 16 volt batteries.

Minus the iraggi. Unless u want a good USED one.
I hear good about mechman. More often than dc tho they're both excellent I'm not hating on either.

I'm not pushing too many watts less than that in my 2009 Malibu, I imagine they have similar electric.
I bought a capacitor and keep strong voltage readings on stock electrical.
