Default Output Energy

I want to put a system in my car but i Dont exactly know the output wattage my engine gives me, like i want to put a nice 1000watt sub in with a 1000 watt amp but i dont want to overload the car with power and be forced to having my battery be drained. anyone know what my limit of power usage is in this car with its 2.0 L engine? Thanks

Power useage You need to upgrade your alternator and wire a couple of batteries with a capacitator in there for that kind of system. Why put all that extra weight in the S2000 IMO you bought the wrong car if that's a top priority.

Theoretically there is no limit if you build everything up.

A 10" will pump in this car...you don't need anything crazy. Best upgrade in my opinion is to install the speakers behind the seats.
