If he really needs a 200amp fuse then that is an INSANE amount of power. And yes, huge amp, dunno if you can squeeze that under the seat if you wanted to!

Hmmm, a VL you say? It's not going to have a chance of falling apart, it will all be stolen within the first hour he leaves it somewhere. :|

Sure will be. Why would he buy an amp twice the cost of the car?

hahaa, Orion take their business seriously esp the HCCA gear.

I reckon in another 10 years there will be a HUGE hearing deafness epidemic, esp from all the stereos and ipods and earphones going around. Just sit on a train or bus to work and back every day and you can see how many people are wearing earphones. About 10% of them are so loud u can hear what they're listening to by sitting beside them.


You know you have gone overboard when you have 3 runs of 0 gauge :P

Considering the standard alternator on a 3rd gen is rated around the 130-150 amps mark ( i think) and i dare say a 10+ year older VL commo would be alot less, yup alternator will die in no time.
