I have an 04 cavalier and am putting in a stereo system that will require more power. Do I need to buy a different alternator to power 2 batteries? If so Does it need to be a special kind because of the ecotec? Or can I just buy any GM alternator? And also what is the recomended amp output for the alt.?
Should be fine on a stock single battery and alt as long as your setup is not to heavy. More details needed on what you plan on buying.

I give up...
i'm buying a VW those people love trees, so they should love eachother too... "Andy"
I know it may sound rediculous but I have already bought 2-12" kenwood KFC-W3010 1000w subs, and 2-15" kenwood Excelon KFC-XW1202DVC 800w subs plus all new kenwood speakers for the doors and rear deck, and 3 Legacy -LA2060SL 2-Channel 2000w amps 12v capacitors
you need some alternator action i believe...three 2000watt amps? thats like what? 1000 rms each? i dont feel like lookin them up...but @!#$ thats like 3000 watts, i dont think the stock alt could handle that...i got like 1300-1400ish rms...and my alternator needs upgrading
