Does anyone know how many amps the stock alternator on my 1991 LS400 is cranking out?
the auto parts stores sell one at 90 amps, and another at 100 amps.
I am building a good car stereo, and my mono amp at 500wRMS powers my subwoofer of 500wRMS, and i'm going to do another 2channel amp spitting out 300wRMS for my component speakers(150 each side).
Does anyone know how many amps all this is going to be using? what the stock amp rating is on the alternator, and if it is enough? I know the 175amp alternator sold on lextreme is tempting, but i don't have $400 for it.
Also, will buying a better battery help? My current battery is very weak i think.
Any help and answers to my questions would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Jeremiah
