just wondering if anybody has upgraded to a high output alternator
what brand did you get? what amperage? what are you pushing with it?
im about to purchase a 260 amp alternator that has about 200 amps at idle to push just a 500/1 jl mono amp and 4x8"JL subs. later im going to add some 4x6 and 6x9 speakers and maybe another 500/1 or some kind of amp thats something like 100-150RMS x4 to push them.
my stock 120amp alternator isnt enough to handle all of my electrical + aftermarket system and i thikn 1000 watts rms adds about 80 amps to the draw, so im not able to beat yet without draining my battery and ruining my old alternator until i get this new one and put it in
anyway, i was just wondreing if others have added one. i dont know how theres jackasses rolling around in shitty rice burners with 80amp alternators trying to push 2000 watts of 2 kicker 12l7's or some shit, lol, i had a shitton of probs just pulling 500 watts rms and ruined my alternator. are these ppl rolling around wtih 5 batteries in their trunk? and how the fuck would one shitty alternator keep all of them charged?
anyway
