Stock, for now. Corner Load 10" maybe soon. But does 10s in the 1/4...
Best Scores out of a trunk
153.0 sealed legal full tilt clamped 5524 @ 42 hz
154+ windows down, 155+ kick

I must be missing something. It did 247 amps but it was all at 12.3 volts even at high rpms

His amp draw is exceeding what the alternator can produce thus you will expect a voltage drop to next source of power. Iirc he is drawing around 500 amps.

If he wasn't dropping voltage you wouldn't see the full output potential of the alternator because he would be holding 14.8 volts.

That voltage isn't typical. I went balls out to make the alt stay loaded down.

Just got some 2/0 ofc sky high for the alt run. Should make her happy.

Just have a juicebox black cherry and black berry up front and a bank of Maxwell's

And for reference before the alt I'd drop to 11v flat with 5 batteries and the bank. So the alt is helping a shit ton

This is correct. If you held higher voltage you would not see the monster amperage. That alt is doing work. Especially when hot. That thing is doing exactly what it should be doing, and then some.
