hahaah..........what kinda question is this ?

NO It will NOT HARM your damn car I have the SAME car.........In fact it will help your car in some aspects other than less dimming and better voltage stability on peaks. Better starts in colder temperature is what i noticed last year.

No downsides at all to my knowledge.
Buy my damn alternator if you want a better advantage of the big 3.

^ Absolutely not! the big 3 improves efficiency = less resistance. so you get better performance from the alternator & the battery.

Installing the amplifiers and turning up the volume is the part thats hard on the charging system.
