J00bles Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 What are your feelings on that load boss 170 amp alternator now? i have the same one for my civic and i havnt installed it yet (you have to remove the driver axel to get to it) but im curious on how well it worked for ya. ALSO, i saw that the voltage meter in your old accord was the "sunpro" advance auto one. i've had bad luck with those. all of mine read a solid 1-2 volts lower than actual voltage. Sub up, port back has worked best for me as well, much louder to me than sub back port back or sub forward port forward. 8 DC Level 4 M2 15s2 DC Audio 5ks26^2 clamshell tuned to 30hz9 Kinetik 1400sMechman externally reg'd 340 S seriesin a 99 Jeep Cherokee Click to see J00bles' Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sub up, port back has worked best for me as well, much louder to me than sub back port back or sub forward port forward. the alt has been great for me. the only thing is under a load the belt tends to slip. when i bang full tilt it squeals. other than that, with the power im running my voltage drops down to about 12.9. with the lights and heat on about 12.4... that sunpro was pretty accurate. it was right there with the volt meter thats built into my radar detector (however accurate that is). i got rid of it with the car. planning on getting the stinger digi meter. sub back port back is my favorite in these cars so far. like james said the cabin gain off the trunk on the low lows is great. i want to go sub and port forward just for the simple fact i want the ass of the box in plexi with the FI logo for the sexy look. also im only on one battery. no powermasters or kinetics yet. standerd OEM type battery up front. one run of cheesy 0 gauge to the back is all its got... if you notice in one of my vids my dash lights dim a little. so i need to add to my electrical sometime. 1992 Honda Accord LX Head Unit: Alpine X-001 Mids/Highs Front: Rockford Fosgate P1652-S Components Mids/Highs Rear: Rockford Fosgate P1653 3-Ways Mids/Highs Amp: Hifonics Zxi6410 Sub: Fi 15" BTL With HiXmCoil Option Sub Amp: Hifonics Bxi2008D Enclosure: 5.2Cubes Gross Tuned at 31Hz Wiring: One Run Of 0g Alternator: Load Boss 170amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AI James Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 just personal taste to the op, i liked mt accords appearance a little more when i tookoff the mudflaps, also your calipers are they panted or are they some kinda aftermarket setup. Ive got some red DC strut bars ive fails to put on because i dont want the back one fuckin with my box design. but they look pretty nice and are pretty funktional. no diffin a off brand and the DC i just like the DC sports/aem brand to match my header and short ram. also which exhaust is that? i used to run an apexi world edition that looked a bit like that one before i got the dc sports catback setup on there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
