Hello I have a 2007 Mazda 3. It is a 4 cylinder 2.0 liter engine. I will be running an saz-2500d and another speaker amp so probably 2800 watts total just in car audio. I just want an alt that can support that without spending too much money. Hopefully best bang for my buck under 400$?

any one know whats going on with them? i have tried emailing, calling and leaving a message and haven't gotten a response back. i ordered my alt over 2 months ago and was told it was going to ship over a month ago by robbie and still no alt. i have tried every way of contacting them trying to figure out a status but haven't got a response. at the beginning of this purchase i had great communication with them and now it seems theyve dropped off the map. and my first attempt of contacting them april 30th and i have tried contacting them through out the past 2 1/2 weeks as well. i think i have been more than patient. now i don't want to hear remember theres a time difference…

So... I just ordered four XP 270 alts and a bracket for my Tahoe. For batts I've got an S3400 for the front and four D3100s for the back. To start with I'm planning on running 10kw to the subs, maybe 1100w to components. So I need wiring advice. Do I: 1. Run the positives from all four alts to the S3400 positive post, then go from there to the D3100s (which will be connected with a bus bar)? This is the "single pool of power approach". Or: 2. Run the positive from one alt to the S3400, then run the positives from the other three alts to the D3100s. This approach completely isolates three of the alternators and the four D3100s, which will be used exclusively to power the s…

I Accidentally left my carputer on last night. When i started my car the XP wasn't making my engine happy charging the batteries up at full load. Anyways, this is what happens when the 270XP loads down a 4 cylinder's engine at idle. It takes 20 seconds for the computer to actually realize what's going on and adjust for the load compensation. The alternator in this car idles at 2,000 alternator RPMs. 500 alternator RPMS LESS than the competition. It's rated to do 180 amps or so at this RPM. It takes power to make power. This proves it.

How much of a difference and what kind of benefits will I get by running a 15.1 voltage regulator on a 270xp? I just got my 270xp last Friday and it was suppose to have this upgrade regulator in it but after I installed the alt I notice that my voltage is only at 14.3. So I think they forgot to upgrade to the 15.1 regulator.

read a previous post and am hoping that belt slip IS the issue but.... battery light will come on and blink temporarily, lost power steering (not directly related to the serpentine belt due to the fact that it's electronic), and service airbag light came on.... voltage for my car, a chevy cobalt normally rests around 13.5 and kicks up to 14.1, after the alternator install, while the car is idling with no accessories on other than headlights the battery voltage constantly jumps from 13.5 to 14.6 like it's cycling for no reason.... I upgraded the electrical accordingly (the big 3 and a kinetik 1800, a second of which has yet to be installed, etc.).... I don't know if it's r…

The thread is to commemorate DC Power for standing behind thier product and honoring my warranty. DC Power makes a top notch product, and has good communication with thier customers. My story: I ordered and installed my 250xp alternator in march of this year. The bracket fit perfect and the wiring was a breeze thanks to the correct plug installed on the alt. No wiring adapter which is good in my book, because every extra connection is just one more place for a problems to occur. The belt that was included was the wrong size and one of the bolts was the wrong thread pitch and alittle on the short side. NEITHER wrong part was a big deal as I could get the correct parts loca…

Hey guys, So here's pictures of stock harness and new one: stock new The blue wire goes to positive stud on alt, correct? I know where the black positive cable from stock wiring goes to positive stud on alt (from stock pic) But where/does the white wire, and the two red wires go to the old wiring? In the pic you see the red wire with ring terminal on left, but on the right theres another red wire about 3-4" long with no ring terminal, just dangling (is this one used?) Thanks

I was just wondering recently, why aren't DC Power altrrnators sold in our community store? The relationship between the 2 companies seems pretty strong. Also, I'm not cheap by any means, but with all the hype and support provided by SSA, why aren't there any sort of special deals for us? Like obviously I know that could be abused a bit. But what if this magical appearance of a discount came in the form of a admin/moderator requested code generated by DC Power themselves? I just don't see the reason for the marriage of one company over another with no incentive from either. I do see the quality in the product presented but just wondering as I lay here somewhat tipsy. Fe…

Hi DC, a few weeks ago I ordered a 270XP alt through Robbie and then about a week and a half ago I called him back up and found out it had been ship the day prior. Right now I'm just wondering if I can get a tracking number for the shipment just to see where it's at. My name is Chaise Cooper and the order was for a 2007 Scion tC - shipping to Magnolia, DE. Thanks in advanced.

Hey, I recently sent in my alternator to be sold by DC... Seeing how they sell like crazy, anyways I sent my alt I believe two weeks ago before MECA, and Rob said he recidved it, he said it was basicly BNIB. I have not been able to get into contact with Rob Nor Kyle, this is a new experience with DC, typically their customer service is fantastic to say the least. My name is Julian smith and the number will be an (816)830-XXX number calling from Missouri. Whenever you guys can give me an update or a call thatd be great. Thanks a lot guys. (and I don't want people posting on here who aren't Affiliated with DC Unless they Are mods, I don't want some nonsense going on, thank…

Watching "Inside west coast customs" earlier and they installed a DC power alternator on the main build they were working on, it was a Baja Chase truck for "OX" of metal mulisha. Not sure if it was mentioned before, but i thought it was cool.
