[ho alternator problem]

get a smaller pulley... contact mechman for custom tooled pulleys for $25 iirc

if the alt was just "wound hotter" which usually costs $80-150 it will perform better at higher rpms

so u either need to turn ur idle up if its at 500-600 to 800rpm... if that doesnt get u any voltage get the smaller pulley

this happens alot actually

edit* didnt see it still happens at 3-4k... maybe ur clipping the shiznit out of ur amp

amp deffainetly isnt clipping, aboslutely no bass boost and barely any gain.

the guy was deff stressing the fact to use the stock pully.

If it was putting out any power at all i think that id be seeing it at 3000 rpms?

I called yesterday but the guy who made it wasnt in. The other guy was talking about changing the internal regulator from 14.3 to 15 volts

but i dont think that is going to change anything.

Im gonna go in this weekend and get him to check it out worst case scenario im gonna try to get my money back.

It was at 3k rmps

yeh im just thinking its not 200 amps at all.

It was only $100 and 1 year warranty so i figured why not?

[ho alternator problem]

yes i have the big three done with 1/0, along with a run of 1/0 to the back.

Voltage was dropping all the way down to 10 volts depending what volume..

[ho alternator problem]

i recently bought what was suppose to be a 240 amp alternator from a local manufacturing company.

I put the new alt in and i have been seeing absolutely no improvement in voltage drop.

I know my amps arent drawing over 200 amps.

The only thing i can think of is this alt. deff isnt putting out anywhere near 240 amps?

if you had all the dimensions maxed and used aeroports with rod bracing to take up the least space internally,

it could MAYBE happen... lol

It would be tough, but your girlfriend would be one of the few with 18"s in the trunk
