Ahmed Johnson Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I have a 370 hairpin alt powering a crossfire 4k at half ohm. Should I do a second power run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lbox88 Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I probably would, I did with my Mechman 320. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkov Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I would do 1 more run for sure. 1/0 wire is rated for what? 350? 375? Technically the 370 may never put out 370 but if it ever did you would almost be over the rating for 1/0 wire. and length plays a role... Crossfire 4k at 0.5 ohm?!?!?! How many inputs? I know it has at least two but isn't that the 4k that has 3? Either way, I would run at least one more run man. 2 runs of quality 1/0 (1/0 car audio wire, 2/0 welding wire) will be sufficient for you. If it were me I would do more but I am overkill. Just me... That amp at 0.5 ohm is gonna pull some hella power.......... Just because it can pull more than you supply it the alt will only give xxx amount and that's what I would wire for.

Ahmed Johnson Posted May 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 One northstar in the back and the amp has 3 inputs. Drop is only bad at a light when full tilt. Riding, it drops for a second and then comes back up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToNasty Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Yes you run power for the output of your alt. 370 amp. 1/0 ofc is rated for 350 ish a 12 feet I think. 1 more would be good ***Super Sellers List***http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has full size SUV so I am thinking his run is like 16'-20'+? but I could be wrong. Alt may never produce 370 but the potential is there and you have to run the wire per the rating IMO, so pretend 370 for 18' and I would run a second run. plus, that amp at 0.5 ohms is gonna pull all it fucking can, LOL wire is far cheaper than that amp or that alt should you have issues with either because you didnt run a second run. 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.
