You may want to look into getting a second battery, and running the system of it directly. I ran a 1000 watt set up, full system off a Yellow Top and ended up "killing" it. Caps are always good though too.

I would up grade to a HO alt and do the big 3 because the factory alt only gives between 100-140 amps. (some models have the 140 alt) I done some research and found out that my system pulls 118 amps when im running it and my stock alt only gave me 105 amps. If yours is pulling significant power them ur gonna burn that stock alt up trying to charge two batteries.

skip the yellow top and the kinetik hc600. i HIGHLY recommend just putting a xs power d3100 under the hood. will be much better than a yellow top and hc600 combined. Will be fine on the stock alt, just use some 1/0 wire to do the big three.
