ok, let us know what kinda car you have first.. secondly, yes it would be fine to do that. but first do some tests. get your altenator checked out, as well as your battery. the stock altenator only pushes out about 60-65 amps. VERY LOW, i recommend getting either a series 5 altenator.. or Silverrotor sells bolt in 3rd gen altenaters (110 amps)

dont worry silver, i'm still gunna buy from you

p.s let us know
