Well this has been pretty funny to watch. My car has 48 amps free after you calculate the elctrical system in the car. My fathers friend is a really good mechanic, I'm going to check with him tomorrow just to confirm.

And bro I wouldn't go with anyone, especially after you lied and said I was PM'ing you. I never did such thing. And I'm not going with anyone, I'm just looking for opinions.


go for subwoofers opinions

should go for atleast 100A alternator thats about 1400 watt rms (900 watt rms to the sound rest to the vehicle itself)

wont get any drops + your batteries will stay healthy

you need to be more consistent in your claims

under 14 volts happens in 20 secs yet you claim you can run even more than that for 6 hours without the voltage continuing to drop

thats very contradictory to what we just seen in your video.

This is the alternator. I wasn't able to go over to my buddy's place to test it but here it is anyways. If anyone knows anything about it that would be awesome.

ya they auto filter that even if you are just saying something like engine and then bay

like "i have oil all in my engin***"

dumb thing lol.

that says 130 amp so it should be fine

however i will say you might be in for a short life span on the voltage regulator because motorcraft uses cheap parts.

big 3 wiring upgrade and try not to let it idle too much while the subs are going. the 130 is generally 2.5k rpm+ rating so idle rating on it is probably around 70 or so.

Well my father is very cautious when it comes to spending a lot of money.
He thinks because it powered his 2x 8's back in the day, it can power my 2x 15's now

Don't get that alternator it's pointless to do any alternator upgrade unless it's a H.O that does rated @ idle. Unless you want to rev your car everytime you play music at 2k+ rpms personally dont bother get a nice battery/big III and you're golden for 1000+ rms.
