MACnonsence6 Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 im in the process of saving and piecing together a rather large upgrade for my car. planning to buy a pair of re destroyer motors tomorrow and have them built by psi from what ive talked with them about 2500 rms. so my plan is to pair them with a ct sounds 4k being that it makes a lil over 5k at 14. i have a few questions regarding my electrical. 1. can you use 14v batterys with an alt that charges at 14v, would that give you a higher resting voltage as well as more play time till discharged? 2. ive been reading about super capacitors. and have been looking into getting these. http://www.ebay.com/itm/6X-Ultracapacitor-Ultra-Super-Car-Farad-Capacitor-2-5V-2300F-/181252822052?pt=Battery_Chargers&hash=item2a33829424 from what ive read and advice ive been giving the plan is. 3 banks of 6 wired in series. then each bank wired together in parallel. wich should give me a max voltage of 15. and 1150 worth of farad. now to go with that i plan to use depending on the answer to question 1. a pair of these in the spare tire well http://www.ebay.com/itm/XS-POWER-D3100-12V-DEEP-CYCLE-AGM-POWER-CELL-5000-MAX-AMPS-/281208027761?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item41794dfa71&vxp=mtr and then im not sure what to run upfront ill have to make a larger battery tray. but basically im trying to figure out aside from what i have listed here what i need battery wise to be able to run. a ct 4k there 125.2 as well as there 125.4 i was planning to use a run each of + and - of 4/0 ofc from welding supply from front to rear i believe thats rated at 550 amps per 50 feet. being ill prolly at the longest run not even need 25 i feel as though that wire would work well. im in the process of trying to locate a H/O for my car "98 dodge neon" ive emailed a few companys and am waiting to here back but from what ive seen there usually a 220 ish amp alt. the goal here is for daily on music prolly wont be ran full tilt to often but id like for everything to be able to handle its self when i decide to go full tilt. I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today. This thing sounds amazing. 130 watts, 12" woofer with a passive 12" woofer tuned to 27 hz. Moving the pictures on the walls and my girl got wet from the bass when i showed her haha. Tonight should be good haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldeneye4564 Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 1. no 2. no the rest: just get the xs power and be done with it. stay with 12v batteries. i would use 1/0. also, in a neon, you are probably going to have to overhaul the rear suspension to handle the added weight of the batteries and other stuff. edit: and if you do put more batteries in the rear upgrade your alt like you said or charge them every night.... I RREEALLY ANGRY WIT U PHOTOBUCKET. HAD TO USE DROPBOX NOW HOLYYYYYY. Wanna ride bikes?

MACnonsence6 Posted November 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 plan was to use 2nd gen springs if i have susspention issues i have all new strut/spring assemly all around. and why 1/0? makes more sence to me to use bigger cable and do less runs and why no to caps? seems like a good way to go being i have rather little space to use. also the plan was to get a small xs charger and wire that in them threw like where the gas cap is so i could charge over night my only thing about that is if such a small charger would even be able to get everything fully charged over night. then comes the question if its ok to do that while using caps I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today.
