12" BTL with 2500watt amp electrical requirements?

I have a 12" BTL with pole chamfer and my Memphis MCD2500 amp is coming in soon. I want to get everything ready so when the amp arrives I can install it right away.

This is my mustang 2004 stock electrical:

130-amp. heavy-duty alternator

540 CCA heavy-duty battery

Battery amp hours (58Ah)

Battery-rundown protection

I will be doing the big 3 wire upgrade with 1/0 gauge wire from batt to alt to ground. Besides that, what else should I invest in? I'm trying to keep it as budget as possible. Thanks.

PS> This is my daily driver.

I'd look into an alternator in the 220-250A range and the largest deep cycle battery you can fit/afford...

For the big 3 wire upgrade, what fuse size should I be getting?
