So, you can get a little extra power from an upgraded alternator, but don't depend on it, even though you will need it. Combine it with larger/multiple batteries that are for audio and definitely run capacitors.

I don't have any experience with these cars, but I used to run 4 12's on 3,000 watts in an 01 Tahoe and later 4 12's on 10,000 watts, one 250a alternator is not enough. I had 2 320a alternators, everything wired with 1/0 ofc wiring, and a couple of these batteries NorthStar SMS-AGM480's. Buuuuuut, with all that said, 3,300 watts seems like way too much for how small this car is. I was looking at max like 800 watts to go in my wife's 86.
