I'd start with replacing your primary battery with a red top and upgrading your alternator. It'll probably work fine. Go with a second battery if you're planning on running the system with your car off for periods of time.

also this sorta pertains to what were talkin about, but ill be runnin my xbox but i need a power inverter. u guys think a 400 watt one will do the trick? ill probably be using it to run the xbox maybe some extra fans and some neons i guess.
