Sounds like it's going to be a nice system.
How much power does your stock alternator put out? For sure do the big 3 upgrade on your wiring.
The amp is a 4 channel amp, looks like you're going to only have 2 subs? How were you planning on wiring those up?
My concern would be the output of your alternator and the power demands of the amps?
You could always look at a class D amp for your subs, more efficient. People say they are not as 'clean' as class A/B for subs I don't think you'll notice any difference in sound quality.
I have a MMATS 1400.1 running off the stock alt on my Camaro and have no issues with lights dimming etc.
[quote="nathansadkins"]I recently purchased a Pioneer MVH-X380BT and installed it in the metra dash kit for my 2003 Honda Accord 4cyl. I am planning to do a full audio overhaul in my car and would love some advice on my plans.
1.)2 Kicker 40CS654 CS65 6.5s (100 watts RMS each)

2.) 2 JBL GTO938 6x9s (150 watts RMS each)
-https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003KN2TGM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_33bdybCSQ3250
3.) 2 SoundQubed HDS208-D2 600W RMS 2.5" Coil -https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TA2WW3M/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_S5bdybYK4X02N
4.) 1 Hifonics BRX616.4 Brutus 4-Channel Super Class-A/B Amplifier, 640-Watt (for the front speakers) -https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00T3VMV2W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_w9bdyb5924FYG
5.)1 Hifonics BRX1616.4 Brutus 4-Channel Super Class-A/B Amplifier, 1600-Watt (to power the subs) -https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00T3VMUW8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_K-bdybSDVFEWT
So my question is, is this even possible? Can I get this much power from my car? I obviously will upgrade the wire gauge. I know this might be excessive but audio is a part of my life and I want to be bumpin big time. Any type of advice or comments would help me a lot due to this being my first audio overhaul in my car. I've attached links to each items Amazon page for convenience. Thanks for any advice.
