Koen,

Thanks appreciate the suggestions:

OBJECTIVE: INCREASE AMPS AVAILABLE TO power AUDIO SYSTEM BY +80A

1- Will change over to yellow top battery.

2- will put in a power cap

3-will put in a wiring kit like this one:
Car Audio Direct - The UK's leading car audio and stereo resource.
However, gains from using this have been reported at only +5% of altenator capacity, giving me +5amps if im lucky.

4- Altenator - honda have said it would invalidate the warranty to put in any 3rd party altenator, and i dont even know if one with higher capacity exists. If anyone does, please do let me know? Altenator at full load, without an aftermarket audio system runs at 75Amps (Honda said) on a type s gt leaving only 20 amps spare capacity.

5-external power - is it possible to run the car audio system on external power WHILE DRIVING? If so is there a smallish, rechargeable solution available?

Thanks
