BanginOnABudget Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 a 270a alt can only support about 4000w... js. im taking out my passenger seat, battery is disconnected, going to unwire and take out the three amps, take out the 70+ lb box, then the platform so i can crimp 1 wire. Almost as bad as those fegs that put those horns in their grills and roll down the street distorting the block.... 1990 Jeep Cherokee 2 Dr. Big-3 in 0g on Stock Alt. Pioneer 6.5" and 5.25"s temp. until i can afford the new crescendos. Pioneer 6000ub Reciever NO amps at the moment. SA-15 on 1kw coming soon. MSG Me for a free enclosure design!! Flared port kits coming soon!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soapbox Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 a 270a alt can only support about 4000w... js. I want a lot out of this build but as funds are collected the build is modified. Eventually there will be 2 270 amp alts. However I don't want to discount my car in Street classes for DB-drag even though I am primarily a meca competitor. With the Batcap 4000 I have the ability to burp a 16k amp with the car OFF!
