Wouldn't one amp for subs and one for front components be enough to blow the glass out of that thing? I had a FAS in an Integra 17 years ago that hit 147 db at glass with the gains all the way down setup in SG mode... would have hit 150 if I tried, what is the reasoning for so much amp/speakers?
I don't even think my car is worth 500 I paid 900 for it 10 years ago I am trying to blow the windows out of it Reasoning is just to make me happy.
I dont think you will need 7 amps to blow the glass out, in all honesty... Both of those 2250s to a pair of 15s each (4) or 2 13W7s or similar and the 430 or 2125 runnin some components would be all youd need. The glass on those Hondas is VERY flimsy...

I know I do not need all of the amps for a system..

Right. Yea I have been looking on ebay and other places just trying to find a good company that doesn't lie about there spec's that is why I started this thread.
They make some great alternators... I have the 200 amp in my ZPA setup, seems to hold voltage at whatever stereo output while moving, now at idle it'll dip a little if its cranked up, but that's due to the crank pulley underdrive system. Youd just put a huge crank pulley on it to turn them full voltage at idle. lol. Might need 2-3 of the 200 amp ones, and a few deep cycle batteries in the back.

COOL I will look at those.I also noticed Striker's profile it says he has a 270amp Machman alt they have a retro fit for my car I think in the factory spot but I wan't to try and keep the factory alt running the car but If I can only fit 1 extra alt and have to upgrade the factory alt to have enough power to run the system so be it.

Try these guys, http://www.powerbastards.com/ Just got the 240 amp HO model for my '97 Z-28 and it works like a charm , just make sure when you install it to connect the positve power cable 1st, then your computer connection if ya have 1 due to the sensitivity of the circuit board inside. Mike is a good guy to deal with and they have the best warranty I've found, 1 year no questions asked, they will fix it or replace it, even if it's your fault .

Just call them up, tell them your car and your needs, and they will make it happen. I got a custom fit for my Saab that has been great, and when it needed servicing they were always available, fair price, and quick!
