xpoppadaddyx Posted September 16, 2015 Report Posted September 16, 2015 I have a 2014 Nissan Altima 2.5S and I know I going to need more power. Let's just say for the sake of argument that an upgraded alternator is not an option because my vehicle is new. So I ordered up a XS Power D3400R from DC and I have an old XS Power D3400 from my 2009 Altima that wouldn't fit so I'm going to put it in the trunk. Big 3 will be done so here's the question. How can I get more voltage stability with what I have and will my factory alternator be able to keep a charge on those batteries or should I just run one? I'll be running RF2500bdcp, 3-T1D410, & a RFT600-4. 2002 Chevy Trailblazer (Build) 2013 Nissan Altima (Build) Poppa's YouTube Channel Poppa's FB Page Poppa's Instagram

But in the meantime, have you upgraded any of your wiring? I see a fat positive wire on your battery and a factory ground. I also see the same red fat wire on your big amp and a small ground on that too. Upgrade your grounds to match those positive cables. That might helps some. Also do a better engine to frame / Chassis ground. A better battery will help too. For the most part though you can't ask power of the stock alternator if it just isn't there to be had.

_paralyzed_ Posted September 16, 2015 Report Posted September 16, 2015 A lithium battery would be hugely beneficial. They can charge so much faster than AGM batteries that your available alternator power is used more efficiently.
xpoppadaddyx Posted September 16, 2015 Author Report Posted September 16, 2015 Ok cool! I'll need to get some offset reducers for the amp. That's why I went with 4ga cause the ones I ordered from DC was the wrong ones. I have some of that STCA 1/0 wire too. I been buying shit and cutting corners.
