  1. ^^ Correct.

    Use them both.

    Connect your OEM wiring AND 1/0 cables directly from the alternator to the primary battery using the lugs provided. Improperly sized lugs can cause heat damage to the rectifier. Do not ground it to the engine, chassis or anything other than the battery negative.

    why cant it be grounded to the chassis?

    Because after it goes through the chassis, your stock ground wire connecting chassis to battery will burn up, or be the bottleneck in your electrical. Run alt - straight to batt -, he's not saying don't do an extra batt - to chassis ground, if that's what you're thinking.

  2. Had a Power Bastard alt in my Bonneville years ago when I was really cheap, it honestly was decent when I revved, but at idle it would drop like none other, lol.

    My Mechman's regulator got damaged in shipping, which I found out after a few weeks of it being installed. Called up Eric and they had it in and out within 2 days, C/S is excellent!

    Has been sitting in the box for about 5 months now, just waiting a few more weeks to get my current build up and going, but when it was in, it was a total beast, had .2 of drop or less with a/c, lights, and an mrp-m2000 at 2ohms.

  3. Alright, So I'm soon to be ordering a d3100 & d3400 with a few sets of terminals from TeamProjectdB and I was wondering about the Mounting hole size.

    They have options of 3/8'' or M6/.25''. I'm assuming since XS uses M6 I'd choose that, but didn't want to order them and have the diamater too small.

    As a side note, has anyone had any problems with set screw terminals under the hood? Just another case of me worying too much I'm sure.

  4. Has anyone clamped the saz 1500?? Its seems a little small for the lvl 3. They can handle 900w each and unless its underrated it will only put 750 to them.

    Most Sundown amps are underrated, and they make power at 12v, not 14.4v.

    Speaking of which, Look on the FS Section here, can't remember the name but a guy has 2 mayhams and 2 BC2ks all for 300 each, heck of a deal there.

  5. Haha, yea. That woke me up a little.

    I'd trade/sell the 18, or like Larry mentioned possibly get a recone for it and do a 15''

    And I'd wait on the amp though, alot of people like AP, but it just doesn't sit right with me, and it's not the cleanest power out there.

    Figure out the sub situation, buy a DC/Mechman alt, then save for an amp imo. You don't want any more lost gear :( still a sad day to hear the brz bite the dust

  6. Too many factors to say what would be loudest, but I'm sure if you just did a slot port sub back, port back you'd be plenty happy. Maybe try sub back port drivers side?

    Btw, what amp are you running now man?

    And saw ya frolfing with Billeh :ph34r:

    Err...what're your max dimensions??
