I have a 2001 Honda Accord LX 4 cylinder, 2.3 liter. I installed a 600watt, 4 channel Kicker Amp in the trunk, and got a new battery, since the
original lost some of it's kick. The quesiton is:

The Stock Alternator that comes in my car, is that enough to power the amp, and all the rest of the car electronics ? because someone told me
that even if the car is running, the Amp might not be strong enough and could slowly drain my battery. What is the rating for the one I currently
have installed ? it's the original from the factory.

Please let me know if I need a new Alternator and if so, where would I need to go to get a replacemenet and what kind would be
good to get. Any help would be appreciated, thanks a alot.

u should be ok with a amp that size no need to upgrade alt, also what type of batt are u running?

 

The original battery, which is kinda getting old, I bought a new replacement, what do you think of this one ?

Autolite 96 Platinum

You think this one is good, cuz my old battery didn't hold a lot of charge for long, it would run out, even before install of AMP if I
didn't drive it for a week, the car bearly would start.
