Re: amp questions infinity 12 vq

Anything between 400-600 watts is more than enough to make them thump as for a cap, CAPS ARE USELESS. Do a search for the big three upgrade, your alternator should be fine, ive run 800+ rms watts on a stock alternator on a toyota corolla.

Don't ever look at cars as just imports or domestics. Just because a car is made in a certain country doesn't mean that it is anything like another car from that country. An example of this is Mitsubishi reliability, just because they are Japanese doesn't mean that they are as reliable as a Honda or Toyota.

Just off my head, Hifonics Brutus 1206. Type that in on Ebay. Or I'll sell you a Kicker SX1250.1, but Kicker's gay.

Well...you would agree that Kicker sucks?

I just happen to have the amp with the stupid RC thing or whatever with it and there is no way that I'll ever use it, I almost pawned it off on a kid for $250. Stupid kid.

Edit: If someone offered me 10 bucks, I'd probably take the money and send it to them. Granted they pay shipping.

Now that Hifonics amp on the other hand, that's a good amp.
