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.

All I can say is get use to it. Probably won't be the last time something doesn't work out on the first try. Welcome to car audio.
