01VWGREENMACHINE Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 i would recommend that you look in the manual. it will tell you what wires do what. you will have to look in each motor section seen how they are for different motors that will be your best bet good luck to you man http://www.stevemead...f-system-build/ 2001 VW GTI with a 1.8T motor BIG 3 Pioneer AVH-4200DVD DOUBLE DIN HEAD UNIT 6 - 4 VOLT PREOUTS RF T1500-BDCP (running at 2 ohm) RF T400.4 RF T1 D212 x2 (in ported box) RF 1/0 TO 4 GAUGE distribution block x 2 all stinger wires 200a alternator (SINGER ALT) RF T2652-S (6.5 MID BASS AND 1" TWEETS in front and rear) KINETIC HC 800 BATTERY (Front) KINETIC HC 1200 BATTERY (BACK) 120ft of 1/0 stinger blue and clear matt 20ft of 4 gauge stinger blue and clear matt 30ft of 8 gauge stinger blue and clear matt 100ft of 12 gauge stinger speaker wire black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newls1 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 as far as I know, that alt wont be compatable with your truck. Yes, it does bolt in same spot, but the voltage regulators are totally different, and I believe the V/R's on 01 and newer GM trucks with 4.8/5.3/6.0 etc.. .are somewhat PCM controlled. Can you make it work, yeah probably, but is it worth all the time and effort, probably not.. Why didnt you just get the correct alt for your app? I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
