  1. ok thanks i was in it the other night fine then i refreshed and then bam i was gone and there is people always in there so i was just wandering what i did if i did do something that i was kicked out for

    im in fine, what i found out you have to do is clear all your history, update firefox to 3.6 and update your flashplayer to latest version

    these are my plugins/addons and i havent had one issue since the reset

  2. the epic 160 or any ac meter is a great tool for tuning... but not for giving an accurate measurment of pressure level... although imo the Audiocontrol spl190 is the closest to the Term Lab then any other meter ive seen...

    the audio control SPL190 was used in SPL comps before termlab, it had to be calibrated, thats why it went out, ive used all 3, the epic 160 uses a mic, tap it and it spikes

    the SPL190 is the termlab unit just needs to be calibrated

    the termlab is a SPl190 just doesnt need to be calibrated

  3. Im so glad someone finally gets it. :) Please tell everyone.!!

    yes i know it stresses the alt, i dont even have an amp hooked up at this time, just doing it to help top off my batts, should be getting a better alt at the end of march at that time i will be removing this, i was more interested in seeing how it works

    \my stock alt is pretty rugged for being stock, so we will see how it fairs

  4. Your alternator isn't controlled by the PCM. Very common myth/misunderstanding about alternators. The only "TRUE" PCM controlled alternators are most Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep vehicles, where the PCM technically IS the voltage regulator and controls alternator output. There are other PCM integrated alternators, where the alternators regulator is excited and controlled by the PCM, but the internal regulator still controls output and voltage. There are also quite a few vehicles and types of alternators that are just activated by the PCM, but the PCM has no "control" over the alternator itself.

    On your alternator, as most others with a "S" or sensing terminal, adding a diode inline just lowers the voltage the regulator sees at the "S" terminal and it over compensates raising voltage to what it thinks it should be. On some vehicles it works, some it doesn't, but 99.9% of the time I would highly recommend against doing what your doing because you can do more damage than what you stand to gain, especially with a stock alternator.

    robbie, i did plenty of testing on the bench alt, and it worked fine, so i moved it to the car and it looks as tho its working fine running at 15.19v

    should hold me over till i get down to you at the end of march robbie

  5. gonna try something i read on teh interwebz 2morrow, its a voltage mod similar to the MLA mod but only for a few cars, i have a ALT that the regulators are controled by the car computer, im going to put a diode on the sensor line so it sees that the alt is producing less voltage, therefore it steps it up, going to try this on a bench alt first if no problems going to move it to my car, will post pics when i do it and the results
