Superjay Posted December 14, 2010 Report Posted December 14, 2010 the short answer is yes...the next question is "how long will it take?"... Principal JTech Consulting - Leader in 12-Volt Training and Product PlanningIt's not about how much power you have, but how well you use it
rboudreaux77 Posted December 14, 2010 Author Report Posted December 14, 2010 the short answer is yes...the next question is "how long will it take?"... i just read what you posted on someone else's thread about making sure aftermarket alts put out enough at idle which i was also told by someone that was gonna tweak my stock alt to put out more power instead of buying one and it made me wonder...lol http://www.dcsoundlab.com/ 2008 Chevy Impala (Daily Driver) Pioneer touchscreen w/navi 1 DC XL 15" (around 4cuft ported box) 1 AQ2200 1 AQ90x4 Memphis MClass 6.5s (front doors) Memphis MClass 6x9s (rear deck) stock alt & front batt; 1 Red top in the trunk 139.2db sealed (on my old JL1000/1) 140.0db outlaw (on my old JL1000/1) 1992 Chevy S-10 Ext cab.

Ohio gen and Powermaster (and Iraggi, but i haven't heard from him in a long time, last time I talked to Dom was over 2 years ago) alternators will typically make higher current at idle.
