k3n12ock Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Most HO alts don't put out diddly at idle rpm.... Need smaller pulley or raise rpm Pretty much this. My EA 200a is the same. I drop to 12.8 at idle. 05 xB - (2) EVIL 18s - (2) BC3500s - NO WALL Channel 1: http://www.youtube.com/k3n12ock Channel 2: http://www.youtube.com/MrK3n12ock2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need smaller pulley or raise rpm even with that, i dont understand why my stock alt didnt do this. but my HO alt does too because your stock alt probably did more at idle.

Trey_Dog650 Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Most stock alts are designed to do more at idle like kranny said. Don't bump at idle Or get a DC power with their XP series. Usually does over a 100 amps at idle 13 Kia Forte Build! 07 Hyundai Accent Build ***Super Seller*** N8ball2013 And then he gets to say ok all you guys were right. im sorry for being a dummy poo poo head.
