Toady Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 ....I knew someone was going to say this. I don't believe there is anything wrong with bumping at a stop sign, or light as long as its not residential. But your rant will not stop red light bumpers, nor will we change your mind. So maybe...just leaving the subject out to avoid unnecessary arguments not pertaining to the topic. OP, of course idle output won't equal max output while driving. But also depends on cooling and how fast the alternator is recharging the battery. Thank you lol, thats the kinda input i need instead of just turning it down at stopsigns lol. Yes i do understand that. I know the alt i have does around 170 at idle, so with that in mind im ditching the caps, hooking up the D2400 under the hood, 2 to 3 D1200's in the trunk. ALso gonna have 4 runs 2 positive and 2 neg from batt to back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamHT Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Anybody else noticed this before?? Plans are 4 runs of 1/0 plus 3 batts to help, first need to know if when brake is pushed if something in the electrical is supposed to drop the volts alot I honestly never did but I learned to do slight overkill with the electric. It is always the first thing I do. Before a deck, door speakers, etc. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-Fizzy Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 i've noticed that idle in drive is different than idle in park. if you understand what i'm saying. when in park at full tilt, i drop to 13 at most. but when i'm in drive, like say at a stop sign, i can drop to 12.2 dont know the solution tho. under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?
