Talk to Mechman, DC Power, etc. Cheap is not the way to be with your electrical system. Unless you want to be replacing amps and such, then don't cheap out. That being said, the YT might take care of your problem, but I wouldn't run it. Personally, I'd run an XS Power batt. You can get a D5100(R) for around the same price as a YT G34/78, but the XS will be a stronger batt.

I'm surprised your first comment was this thread, not the capacitor one...

Are you getting alternator whine thru the speakers or you actually hear it from the alternator?
