bigp_on_the_beat Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I was deciding on buying an alt from them also, sounds good to be true but the other places I looked are way out of my price range. I should be ordering my alt by the end of this month Quote No car at the moment.

XX7R Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 yeah i would just save up if i were you. the only reason i got one is because my stock one took a crap and i got one of these for like a $100. im just using it temporarily until i have enough funds to buy a DC alt Quote 1990 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo - Summer Ride(No system yet, lookin to get it up to 450-500 horse first!)2006 Chevy Malibu - Daily DriverDC Level 5 15", 2 APSM-1500's, 3.88 cu. ft. tuned to 32hz1992 Honda Prelude - SOLD2 18" TC 3hp Woofers on a Crescendo BC3500.1d, 12.7 cu. ft. tuned to 35hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adreano17 Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 yea, i see where you all are coming from. thanks for such the quick input. but DC power is good i know, but extremely high. what is a manufacture that makes quality alts at a cheap price? being that i have an import, my options are rather limited.
