I am having issues with my charging system, I was told that 1 wire is the way to go.

If I go to the 1 wire and get one at higher than 100 amps, will i be able to run a stereo, nothing crazy just a Retro sound with 4-6 speakers.

is it worth it to just Un-F the three wire system, 3 people have tried to tackle it and it seems lost.

Alternator: Good
Battery: New
Current: Closed: No draw.
Regulator: New

The hot wire is hot.

The fuses under the hood are good.

The blue wire is hot

The ground is in place.

ANY input would be appreciated.
