I'm looking at fitting a high end audio system in my Mpi. The question is.....can the factory alternator handle it? The amp I'm using is a 700 watt amp calling for a 60 amp fuse using 12.5-14.5 volts RMS. I'll also need to power a new radio head unit.
The factory alt is 65 amp, correct? Can it handle it or will the load require an upgrade/rebuild? The car is a Sportspack with all the extra lighting and it has an air con system, so this needs to be factored into the electrical load (however I have no idea how much volts/amps are being used by these items).
Lastly, is the car negative or positive earth?
