Kranny Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 be prepared for the possibility of 0 idle output and voltage fluctuations if the regulator cant keep up with the varying loads your stereo, lights, etc put on it. lol when i played e-40, the regulator didnt know what the fuck it was doing and i literally saw 16v on the volt meter and as low as 12v. repeatedly. in the matter of seconds. not to mention the turn-on speed of that alt was like 900 engine rpm...and when my car was warm i was around 700rpm at the red lights. not charging ftw.

ncochran Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Good luck with that then. When you get it, before you put it in, take it over to advance auto/autozone and have them put it on their bench and let us know what it does.

Lbox88 Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Oh, and keep the tools and stock alt in the vehicle so that in case the new one shits out on you, you can at least change it out in a parking lot lol. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 You would do better by seeing if there is an OEM replacement that has higher output. Some cars like crown vic and some mini vans have like 3 different alts depending on which model you own. I would also like to see how that eBay alt tests and see how it is doing in 6 months Edit mobile spelling ftl Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.
