  1. Sometimes prefabs are actually not bad and really fit specs.

    Don't know about the lvl4s but a looooong time ago I had some MTX Thunder 8000s in a Polk Audio DB series prefab and they sounded sick. So as long as you're not into the comp scene then prefabs aren't as bad as you think.

    You just have to find one that fits your subs specs. But like I said, don't expect to win too much comps with it.

    you got a good point because sometimes a prefab can be good but i saw a prefab my brother had for his solobaric l7 15 and it was like 2 cubes tuned to around 38 Hz with 11 inches of port per cube and all the sides besides the front baffle were 1/2" particle board.

    that ended the chance of every using a prefab for me

  2. why would you want to run an alt on an underdrive pulley? turning it slower would be the last thing i would want it to do

    Well thats what I'm asking. I have the stock alt on now with no voltage drop and sparse upgrades (Big 3). I am even running a stock battery, and at full tilt, there is almost no drop. However, my system isn't very powerful at the moment but I did come across these underdrive pulleys by unorthodox racing for my accord. I'd like to get a little extra power out of her, because the K24 is quite an engine when its worked.

    I just was curious about the possibility of a bigger alt on a smaller pulley.

    i see what you are saying now, but you have it all wrong. an underdrive pulley will turn the alt slower, resulting in less power being made, what you are wanting is an overdrive pulley to turn it faster

    i believe what hes saying is he wants to get an UNDERdrive pulley to get a little more power out of his engine and hes asking if it will affect the output of his alternator. the answer would be yes it will affect your idle output but probably not by very much. and maybe it would be possible to get an overdrive pulley for your alt to counteract the underdrive pulley on the crank
