DLHgn Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 That's awesome. I have a single IS12 v3 for Home theater use and that thing is an absolute monster. 2.5ft3 net tuned to 26Hz. Running on a NU3000 wired to 4ohm. Just demolishes my room and can be heard 6 floors up and down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmpannekake Posted August 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 little update, been having some issues with the pulley not lining up with the rest and they dont make a standard pulley that will work for me so only one thing to do, modify one of the pulleys i have.First i had to use the lathe to make a spacer that is around 11mm and had an inner diameter of 17mm, so i used some 40mm thick stainless bar. spacer all done, just need to weld it onto the pulley, the shaft on the alternator is not long enough to just put a loose spacer between the pulley and the shaft itself, so i have to add to the back of the pulley and then remove it on the other side so i can still put the nut on the shaft and the pulley will stick further out. tacked it in 4 places and made sure it wasnt crooked, put a piece of brass in the center to lign the spacer up properly with the pulley, then i proceeded to weld it all the way around trying to use as little amperage as possible to it wont deform the pulley. almost done, finnishing it tomorrow, measured it and its of by 0,0012mm so i think it will work good, cant wait to get the alternator in the car and actually working, dc repaired the amp that blew aswell so i will be getting that back aswell soon.

mmpannekake Posted August 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 just got home and had to check if the pulley fit and its looking good, will put the alternator in the car tomorrow to test that it works, hopefully i can crank it up and not drop to 12volts.

mmpannekake Posted August 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 got the alternator in today and its working awesome, went from 13,8volts to 14,7-8 and it also just drops to around 13,9 when slamming, earlier it would drop straight down to 12volts on the same volume. need to upgrade the ground from the frame to the engine block but waiting for cable lugs atm.

SLYentist Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 those wonderful DISA valves. they eventually fall apart and the metal pin that holds the flap in place likes to fall into the intake and from there into one of the cylinders. What a great design. Cables and wires almost never fail; the terminations do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great design. on the m57 diesels yes, standard to delete those, not a problem on the m52tu's. pretty much the only problems they have had with the m52s are radiators and the crank case ventilation. other than that great engine, having a little hard time on idle with playing music with the new alternator, need to give it 1000+rpms if not it will dip down into 5-600 when the alternator all of a sudden starts to charge hard.
