I am going to be purchasing a lot of new gear amounting upto about 2500w RMS. Im guessing im going to have to get a new alternator/battery/more than one battery. Wondering if anyone could give me any advice as i have limited knowledge in this area.
The car is a 1996 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 16v Sport by the way

Probably best to ask on talk audio, Thats a real big setup your looking for so expect to kiss goodbye to £1.5k+ to do it properly.
But if thats what your after then go for it, I had 1600WRMS in my corsa for a few years before I put it on a diet for the LET
Ive got a RE XXX 12" sub if your after a sub, rated at 1600W RMS if i remember correctly

As for the alternator you can fit a 120A one from some bigger vauxhalls but I cant remember what model. Any alternator from the vaux car range will fit as long as its about the same year as your car, Think mine was a 100A from an astra estate diesel
