Ive got a set of 55w HID's on the way. Right now when i play my system full tilt at idle my voltage drops low...like low 11's. Will i have issues with the HIDs? Just curious...

why is your voltage that low? lower the volume bro.

but it shouldnt affect anything. HID's stay pretty constant from what i hear

you might need a relay harness anyways stock harness might not support the 50w

ballast depending on vehicle. but if your voltage is dropping to low 11's then they too will have light dimming to them

even with a relay harness

My alty puts out the power around 8-900rpm. engine idles at 600. Umm...i ordered the wire harness but i just wanna make sure theyre going to be ok if the voltage happens to drop.

you should upgrade your electrical man.

but the hid's won't dim like your halogen do. they might still dim a little though if you are dropping into the 11's.

they will use less power and be brighter though.
