I have a 2006 Toyota Corolla Type S and I was wondering if any of you have the same car and have a system in it or have seen a system in a Corolla Type S? I need some ideas on setups. Right now I have a Batcap 800 in the trunk along with Dynamat in the trunk and under and on top of the rear deck, a JBL GTO 1200.1 II amp powering 2 Orion HP 12s sealed in 1.2 cubes each. So far I'm upgrading my amp to a Sundown Audio SAZ-1500D and upgrade my Batcap to a solenoid and a Stinger SP1000 battery. I already have a 70 amp alternator so I don't feel the need to upgrade my electrical system. As for subs I don't know yet. So far I may want a pair of SS RL-p 12s sealed in 1.35 cubes each.

70A alternator or 170?

70 isn't very much, though i think stratusfaction has one around that i got major dimming when running my 1200.1 and a 800.2 at the same time.

I believe Kickinaudio (member on here) is currently working on one.

Actually 70 amps isn't that bad. My last car had a 50 amp alternator and I had a 1500 watt amp and a solenoid and a Stinger Power 2 dry cell in my trunk along with a cap and I had no dimming at all.

70 amps isn't going to cut it with the power he wants to run.

70 amps is pretty weak. The corolla also has some weak grounding, a big 3 is much needed on this car (at the least).

I've installed a 180amp alternator from Excessive Amperage.

Hmmm, maybe will look into upgrading my alternator then. How is 70 amps not enough for the amp I want to run when you have 180 amps and am going to run 4000 watts?

70 amps is enough for your car as it is.. with no stereo. How are you planning on powering the stereo?

No need to be a d!ck about it. It's just a question. I'm trying to get a total understanding. That's why I asked, to understand and learn. I will be upgrading my alternator when I have the money.

Thanks for your advice and input. You gave me some good ideas for my car and I will be getting a bigger alternator when I have the money next month. I'm thinking of running a Fi BL 12 in 3 cubes ported with a SAZ-1500D. I want a loud LSQ setup.
