I drive a 2000 Honda Accord and I have 2 amps. One running at 62.5 watts RMS in stereo (so 125 watts RMS total) and another at 250 watts RMS in mono for a grand total of 375 RMS watts.

I've been told that the honda alternator supports 65 amps and 80 amps at best.

I wanted to upgrade my amp to one that delivers 360 watts RMS in mono which would bring my total to 485 rms watts.

I have a 1 farad cap and an Optima Red Top battery. The Red Top is a starting battery and not a deep cycle such as the Yellow and Blue Top batteries.

Will I be okay with the upgraded amperage? Should I be considering upgrading my alternator? I could only find one place on eBay, alterstart, that is located in TX and gives a lifetime warranty. It's difficult to find a place in the GTA that does a good job of rebuilding alternators without losing my stock alternator.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
