zaxfire69 Posted August 5, 2007 Report Posted August 5, 2007 (edited) I see that Powermaster Batteries are the official battery of SMD, But what about the SPL Alternators...I know Iraggi is used mostly, but what about these Adjustable voltage Alt's...Or are they real expensive and the common folk can't afford them?? I've never seen anyone with one of these. http://www.powermastermotorsports.com/spl_alternators.html I see I didn't read this far down.. The SPL alternators are specifically designed for trailer only extreme competition vehicles. Because of the radical design, output at idle is usually 0 and because of additional heat created; these units should not be operated at full output for more than a few minutes. In some cases, SPL units can be custom installed as a second alternator to the original unit for street applications. However, caution must be taken that only short-term loads are sent to the SPL alternator. Edited August 5, 2007 by zaxfire69 Quote
sactownstang Posted August 5, 2007 Report Posted August 5, 2007 yup, thats what I want! Now ya think thats a bolt on in a CRX Quote
zaxfire69 Posted August 5, 2007 Author Report Posted August 5, 2007 I doubt it...I was checkin out the battery's and run up on these..I bet they are expensive...Wish they would bolt onto our little Honda engines..Ha.. Quote
audiofanaticz Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 (edited) I dont know if Im reading this right, they have something the iraggi doesnt do. With additional components XS VOLT units can be setup to charge a vehicle’s 12-volt system in primary mode and then, when needed, step voltage up and switch the charge over to a 16-volt battery bank in a secondary mode for competition. So if that means that you can charge your front battery and run your car off 12volts while having your stereo and rear batteries getting 16 volts Id be willing to drop some money on that. As I read on: he SPL alternators are specifically designed for trailer only extreme competition vehicles. Because of the radical design, output at idle is usually 0 and because of additional heat created; these units should not be operated at full output for more than a few minutes. That kinda makes me not want it. I know the iraggi will work for daily driving where as the powermasters wont. Edited August 6, 2007 by audiofanaticz Quote
sactownstang Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 Just need to make it work as a second alt... Somehow... Obviously some kinda custom bracket maybee a tensioner to make it happen.. If I can only get it inplace of the AC compressor, I'd drop the 500 bucks (well I'd look around) for it... Looks top notch and after using a few powermaster products, it probally is... Quote

emperorjj1 Posted August 9, 2007 Report Posted August 9, 2007 i was all wet when i first read about them a few years ago... but if you think about it its the same as any other big externally regulated alt. nothing new Quote J. JMy CardomainFINISHED COBALT SS/SC DUAL ALTERNATOR PICS theres no such thing as too expensive when it comes to upgrades like that, because imo if you are gonna spend to upgrade then do it correctly rather then be a cheap ass ricer
