All BS aside, If I see one more comment in here that is NOT about the pre-sale, I will start the vacations. And that includes the trolls feeding the trolls.

BigK72Beast Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Save your hard earned money (I know it's hard) and buy a custom build Ohio Generator. He does great work and personalizes them for your vehicle each and every time. You can get anywhere from 100 amp to 2000 amp alternators. And yes, I have seen a 2000 amp alternator from him. Our most popular is the 650 amp alternator, but also look into ground upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Op you should have spent that money on the big three. And maybe a good battery. Then bought a real alt later. Of course go look at reviews for boss subs and amps and then tell me how reliable internet reviews are.

Tecomah Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Although Ohio gen is a step up I still would go with either dc power, singer or mechman. They are even better and a 650 amp alt probably has very little idle power 750??! Yeah, fuck that. Fuck this website, fuck SMD, fuck Steve, fuck all of his butt buddy mods, and their couches.^ DON'T BE A DICK LIKE THIS GUY Team Subsonic Lows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanSierra Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 This was a great example of someone creating a thread, asking for REAL knowledge, receiving it, and still choosing to ignore it. I hope a lesson is learned on this and that the alt puts out NOTHING at idle. You're expecting 200A at idle, what a joke. You may be able to expect that from a reputable company, I HIGHLY doubt this one will put up that number. You should have saved your money, yes. It IS good, however, that you re at least thinking of upgrading the alt. some guys never even see the need for the power you're pushing. Time will tell if you've made a good/bad choice here. I suggest carrying your WORKING stock alt around with you with a spare belt and hand tools to replace it on the fly incase this new alt takes a crap on you Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 I think my mechman 240 puts out 180 at idle. I'll have to check when I get home. But I paid 400 for it.

SnowDrifter Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 There's a reason GOOD alts have a starting price of around 400+ If you pay cheap money you'll get a cheap product. ~~~~~~~~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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
