[QUOTE="03cobra#2, post: 17029141, member: 52057"] Finally got to take the car out, went to a empty parking lot and played around with the system a bit. Definetly need more power. Using my volt meter during bass hits / test tones voltage drops into the 12 volt range pretty easy and the amp does go into protect. Also the ms3 does not like voltage drops. When the bass hits the wideband goes lean for a split second and the car jerks. [emoji2357]. Currently running a 200 amp alternator and a older lead acid group 59 battery under the hood. On order is a 270 amp alternator, and a XS D3400 agm battery to replace the lead acid under the hood. That should pretty much fix the problem. If I still need a bit more lithium batteries are only 5-7 lbs and I can easily add that. On a side note the back end definetly sits lower with the subs in there lol. I figure weight wise if I remove the subs I probably added 80 lbs to the car with the amps, sound deadening, and upgraded battery under the hood. A fair trade off to have a nice audio system. The subs and boxes probably add another 75lbs or so. I'll respond back when I get new parts installed. [/QUOTE]
