  9. how do you get 16 volts?

    Unless your a very big competitor, I would advise u to not bother. It's not worth it for a daily driver!

    Good Luck

    Why not? :pardon:

    i want to know why not also

    Thanks for all the input. I am still willing to read good links, etc., so I can understand this concept better. <_<

    In response to AKBASS's post (just above this one), I would be feel satisified with appr. 15.-15.25 volts. I don't necessarily want to go to the further cost/effort of installing 16/18, and I don't want to complicate my feeble mind.

    My air cond unit is gone and that will house some sort of ho alternator, while also keeping my stock alt. Still, running seperate electric systems (one @ 13v, one @16/18)seems a little excessive if I can hit appr 15.1 volts without doing that whole higher voltage gear process. I assume running a lesser voltage or stock voltage system would require a larger amount of reserve power so the voltage wouldn't drop below it's 15v max (or drop much). Is 15 really doable with regular batt's and alt's?

    After contemplating the two paths everyone seems to be speaking of (easier 15v system with lots of reserve for little voltage drop, or buy expensive 14/16 type stuff), I wonder if 15v is cool for stock. I guess it is ok, since your achiveing it with stock voltage alt's and batteries.

    Not trying to drill everyone out, I appreciate help or places to read up on this. Thanks again, W

    15v is fine it wont hurt 12v batteries.

  21. amp wont turn on

    lol u guys are tippin me out. this is what u can do. check ya remote wire since that turns on the amp, next check ya fuse up front and see if its popped, then check where ya ground is grounded and see if its tight. when u do step one take a jumper from the power wire to the remote wire spot and touch it if it comes on its, ya remote wire that is at fault. do that then come back!!
