RooTxBeeR Posted September 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 I was thinking about getting this one re-wound for a higher amperage. Or possibly running 2 stock alts. Other than that, a H.O is out of the question.

RooTxBeeR Posted September 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Do you know the stock amperage of your alternator? yes 60A, previously stated.

Skullz Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 His battery is so low on voltage that at idle it can't sustain above 12.4v to charge it, i would get that battery asap and find a higher output alt to replace your stock one with. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, a H.O is out of the question. Why? I do not have the many for a H.O. nor the current draw to need one. I am barely breaking 700 watts more than likely, there possibly can't be a need for a H.O. alt.

littlebuck1919 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 well...since ur alt is only giving u 60 amps....H.O. can simply mean its a higher output than what ur current alt is giving u...which u seem to desperately need....try for double the amperage and see where that takes u...ur voltage is very low, and even if ur running a legit 700 watts....wat is that, like 70 amps (approx) worth of draw? Feedback Thread: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/152368-littlebuck1919s-feedback/#entry2177586 i think you'd stick your dick in a blender if it told you it was 40 wtih two kids your age. lol 6/18/82 - 4/17/12 R.I.P. to my sister Shana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I want to see how much it would cost for a re-wind of my stock one and how much charging amps that would give me. Or go to a scrap yard and get another stock alt and install that. I do not have AC in my car so that spot is open.
