Like n8 I have my shipping companies on lock. Always greating them at the door -
Power Bastards Alts...
El1T3Bass replied to Justscrap's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
ive heard bad and good. pretty sure they come with a warranty so just try it out? -
Texting While Walking

X2, I tell my girl to leave her phone off when she's around me, otherwise it's like I'm not even there... It's quite sad how attached people are to their phones -
this just made my night... only in Wisconsin would this happen

Taking out a loan?
El1T3Bass replied to C-Fizzy's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
im 16 and just got a $3300 loan, i have no credit whats so ever. just have your parents or someone with reputable credit co-sign, but a couple hundred down and you should be set -
thanks man! i already have acouple helmets and some icon jackets laying around so im good on gear for awhile. is the 600cc replica but its only a 250. like i said wanted something small for my first bike. but soon enough ill be in the group lol as for helmets and gear, my dad has rode for many many years and has alot of stuff from his old bikes that im using for now. the jacket i have now is alittle lose and i didnt know it had to be tight. thanks for the heads up looks like ill be getting a new jacket you thought wrong thanks! thanks for the info bro! but ill never ride without gear... just not worth the road rash, and hospital trip to me... thanks for the words o wisdom! just some kind of eye protection here.. i wont ride without a helmet tho thanks!! thanks for the info, never knew that id have to turn the opposite way but im far from taking turns fast... x2, id rather shower than not be able to shower for months from road rash this Wisconsin weather is nuts man! im loving it! im going to get my temps tomorrow and taking a class in April... if your ever around eau claire hit me up man!

I've done it, wouldn't recommend it. Stock alt Big 3 Xs 3400d 1 run of 1/0 Dropped to 12.8s Wasn't in full tilt tho. Just gotta be smart about it. Hope this helps

Look around and read. If your a noob why start out at a pretty high level system? -

Oh really?? -

I'm curious. Why can you not mount them upside down -
I am ignorant.. Thank you very much

New Shoes! BMW E90

How you like those twin turbos? Just got a 325i... Nothing compared to this but still. BMW ftw -
He said it looks to be like cca, not it looks to be like 4g. Strike me if I'm dumb/blind but I see nothing about the size of the wire i think it was stated
-
Regardless if you came to my shop or not my pockets will still stay fat. Fuckin owned by BigSix. God damn lol
-
I guess I didn't miss that part because it was never stated... But op if it's undersized and you plan on running 3k+ I'd get some different wire...

I disagree n8 This is not from me but this is how I feel... I will likely get flamed for this post, but I do not care because I believe in fair and accurate information for my fellow hobbyists. If money was not in the equation OFC>CCA due to better conductivity, but silver would beat both. So let's take a look at conductivity. Pure aluminum is 61% as conductive as pure copper. The ratio of 10% copper and 90% aluminum leaves us with a conductor that has 65% the conductivity of pure copper. Most CCA is 90/10. In actuality you get a tad more due to the skin effect, which we will not discuss for this matter. The main problem with aluminum is the Aluminum Oxide film that develops on aluminum. This film is actually an insulator and can cause some issues. Most reputable manufacturers of CCA will have some sort of coating to deal with this issue. So again if price were not an issue OFC is always better than Aluminum and anyone who is so die hard on OFC over CCA should actually be running silver power wire since price is not a major concern of theirs. Anywho if we break down the cost to conductivity ratio CCA blows OFC out of the water. Most OFC 1/0 is load rated to 350 amps. Let's say you have a very large run of CCA at 25' to make the math easier. Now let's price a 50 foot spool of OFC at 180. So you get 3.9 amps of conductivity per dollar. Now let's take the 350 amps and multiply by .65 and we get 227.5. The CCA we will price at 90 for a 50 foot spool. For the CCA we get 5.1 amps of conductivity per dollar. In fact we could even do 2 runs of CCA for the same or less than one run of OFC and have an additional 105amps of current capacity. So in conclusion OFC is best if money is not a concern or every .01 of a db counts, but for ANY daily driver CCA offers better conductivity for the money. The one scenario where OFC is better is if one CANNOT do more then one run and they are drawing OVER 300 amps of actual current.
