Draw and charge concern me, I plan on "topping" off after every round but our logs show us the car is sucking all the juice from the 50 amp nipensendo unit it can make.
So, since I made 3123 with the car I am a little leary of adding another battery (I still need to drop 75 lbs or so from the car) and well.....
But at the same time spending $430 on a powermaster 150 dosent seem great if its going to slow me down more than the weight.
Just looking for opinions here on both a good choice (my bracket are already setup for the denso/nippensendo mini type) but people rework them.
And I never want to slow the car down by "pulling" to much alternator side. Is a second battery or a better alternator the way to go for the amps ?

I put an alternator switch in my car last year. When I was scrambling for ET. Later in the year I found out that the alternator switch slowed the car down by at least a tenth and a mile an hour.
