KnockinthaStreetzof608 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 you dont know what yout talking about it is bad to run your voltage like that for example those batteries i will never run iton anything higher then 15volts and as for electronics nothin over 16volts,but ig mister know it all here just ignore that, but to answer your question i have a friend running a 18volt system and he says he sees slight gas mileage and other minor things run more effient Quote CAR -2005 Ford Mustang (Legand Lime) H/U -Pioneer avh 3200dvd Amps 2 AQ 3500d.1s strapped 1ohm daily .25burps 1Sundown Audio 100.4 1 Sundown Audio 125.2 Subs 4 AQ HDC'4s 12's Mids and highs 4 Sundown Neo Pro 8s 2 AQ Super Tweeters Electronical Mechman 270 unit 1 D3400 2 D3100's WALLED!

95_1500 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 A 16 volt setup uses 16 volt batteries that charge at ~19 volts. You will be using a 14 volt system which on newer vehicles the 16.5 charging voltage is fine. As said before on your 91 dont be surprised if something does go out. Higher voltage could cause some electronics (talking the components themselves such as circuit board components) to run hotter leading to premature failure. Good luck, hope it works out.

ugpbmx Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 id like to see how this goes since it is an older vehicle. I would think that you might get a stronger ignition from the coil and a stronger spark to the plugs. but that would make me think you would get worse gas millage because you are useing more gas when getting the bigger spark. if that makes sense its late lol.
