      Sorry I do not mean to jack, but did you do any thing to the charging system. I am running 400 rms to my components and 200 rms to my basslink. At night my dash lights dim below 2k rpm. I have stock battery and alternator.

      I've got a 200 watt amp in my car running one 12 and it is plenty. it doesn't really "bump" but it can get pretty darn loud if you turn the sub up. I had a 600 watt for a while and that was too much really. I like clean, full sound rather that obnoxious bass tho.

      Big three?? I have an upgraded ground kit and thats about it. I am trying to get a stinger, but they are slow in getting back to my friend. He owns his own business and can get the stinger for the ep for about 120.

      Big three:
      Battery ground - Engine ground
      Alt to Battery - Alt ground
      Battery to fuse box - Fuse box to ground

      Some of the other guys on here have a different opinion as to what the Big 3 entails upgrading but on all my cars that have an amp I always update those!
