Im done until I get new batteries and a bigger alternator so it is ok for the time being. It is kinda rediculous that just my comp sets are causing my lights to dim.

 

well how many watts are you giving them? i got an xtr500.4 and you should know that xtrs bench much higher than rated. mine was benched at 151/ch instead of the rated 125/ch. so my comps are getting about 600w. and thats def enough to dim lights on a stock electrical system.

 

Damnit man, I was sitting there trying to figure out how in the hell you thought they were getting 600 watts each and then realized you meant total. I just think it's funny to have the lights dimming off all "highs" even though they are getting 500 watts each alone w/o the tweeter amps added watts.

 

watts are watts to a car ya know

 

If you are putting in a HIGH power system then I suggest getting a dual terminal battery. the kind with side and top mount posts. i had a MMATS amp running a juggernaut 15 in mine and it ate my battery. It heated up the plastic around the post causing it to leak because of all the juice running through it. So i bought the 4 post, leaving the truck itself on the side mounts and the stereo on the top postive post.
