  1. It's the whole mixing subs thing that is causing issues, you can't mix subs in the same box, complete different specs from each other and it's causing issues for you, I honestly laugh when ppl do this bc they think, ah man no big deal. Well it is a big deal bc once again, different specs

    I'm not trying to burst your bubble here but those subs are basically fighting each other bc different specs for the alpine and sundown

    That is my theory

  2. Here is the info mechman gave me when I asked about an alt. Not sure the size of pulley.

    Those vehicles have a pretty low idle speed, and a relatively small crank pulley, so I generally recommend either the 170 amp or the 240 amp S series unit if you want really good output below 800 engine RPM. The 320 amp unit starts making good output at about 800 rpm engine speed and above. (if you require a lot of power, but also want good output at idle, there are power programmers available to increase the idle speed of the vehicle to 800 rpm if necessary) All three S series units are pretty much indestructible, even in hot climates. All the S series units feature our twin heavy duty internal rectifiers, oversize charge post, billet aluminum overdrive pulley, cutting edge 6 phase hairpin stator technology, and 12 massive diodes. 6 phase technology allows for outstanding low RPM output, in a moderately sized housing that bolts right in to the stock location. All S series units are made in the USA and come with a 2 year warranty.

  3. I am in no way bashing them, just simply posting this so maybe someone else can help.

    In August I bought a 170amp alt for my 02 grand am, it lasted a month and the regulator went out no big deal, got it back and was working great. 3 weeks later, I start my car in the morning, I live in PA so now it's winter out. I pulled out of my drive way and my voltage is reading 11.9 so I kept driving and after about 4-5miles the alt will kick in and reads 14.8

    This has been going on for a 2 weeks, seems like the alt won't work in the cold and of course it's hurting my batteries and my heat don't work unless alt is working.

    I contacted mechman a few times and told them my issue, Bryan did say to send it back and they will fix, well I don't want too bc for a alt to shit out twice in like 2 months is not cool, it's a pain in the ass to change the alt in my car, let alone the timing belt. I want my money back or something. But I called 5 times and they said they will call me back and all this and they have not. Seems like I'm being ignored..

    Not bashing mechman here, I just need some help. This is a weird situation

  4. ^^ lol

    It's awesome what you do, I got a few friends that don't like you bc all you do is rep RF and that's not true and also RF does a lot for you as well.

    These friends and others do not know you, I don't know you but I know what kind of person you are, would love to meet you one day, it's just awesome knowing that you care and are not just a douche bag lol
