excelon72 Posted July 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 The Buddy Club Condensor also has a cool blue glow to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excelon72 Posted July 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Got the condenser in the car rut before it started raining and hooked up all the ground wires.That's the ground for the shock tower or to the frame as my research indicated that goes directly to the frame . This one goes to the valve cover bolt that goes down to the engine block This one goes to the bolt on the side of the engine block by the alternatorThis one goes to the trans casing? It is in back f the starter if I'm not mistaken.Tis is everything hooked up.. I also replaced the negative battery terminal with another JL Audio terminal. This is NOT the finished product as it started raining on me. I will neaten it up tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excelon72 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 It's not that low though 14.4 is really good, anything above 13 is acceptable. Besides gels tend not to have as good a peak voltage as fully charged liquid battery. But I will charge it can't hurt for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
