wheres the flex at Posted March 11, 2012 Report Posted March 11, 2012 Is it possible to make a stock alt push more amperage,by adding a larger pulley? 2001 Nissan Frontier3/5 drop ''Gutted" Underconstruction If you don't let your unborn swim in her mouth someone else will.
Hollowstylez Posted March 11, 2012 Report Posted March 11, 2012 I think you would want a smaller pulley so it will spin faster.
SnowDrifter Posted March 11, 2012 Report Posted March 11, 2012 Either a smaller alt pully or a larger crankshaft pulley. Just note that doing either will put excessive wear on the bearings of your alternator. If you need more power - just rev your car, if you need more than that: get a better altetnator. ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444
Hollowstylez Posted March 11, 2012 Report Posted March 11, 2012 Yea I would have to agree, the safest thing would be to upgrade your alt.
wheres the flex at Posted March 11, 2012 Author Report Posted March 11, 2012 Yeah, I was talking to a guy at a lil car club get together and he was telling me to just change the pulley out to a smaller one so it would help out at idle. But thanks for the input. I think I'll just buy a couple batteries and see where that puts me at. 2001 Nissan Frontier3/5 drop ''Gutted" Underconstruction If you don't let your unborn swim in her mouth someone else will.
