heres some picture diagrams 12volt ftw

this is what Mike from Power Bastards said Is the output rating cold or hot?HotWhat is the idle output?110A+What is the idle rpm rating at idle output?We consider idle to be 650RPMHow is the cooling system at peak output?Great How long can is sustain maximum output?Depends on the vehicle (alternator mounted next to header?)What is the maximum alt rpms it can receive before failure?More than your engine can spinWhat is the maximum output rpm rated at?1200RPMWhat is the voltage regulator set at if internally regulated?14.6vIs it direct bolt on or is modification required?Direct bolt onWill it effect or is it controlled by the car's computer?Controlled exactly as the stock alternatorDo i need an overdrive pulley for proper idle output?Monthly special going on right now, free overdrive pulley already pre-installed on all alternators. i dont know quite what this means and actually i was looking at the wrong one 289 w/o shipping

yeah they all want 599+ i think im just going to go with Exsessive amperage

Shizz you the best. thanks. i'll send them a email and see what they say. thanks. thanks to you mac.

I never said that cheaper was better. Sometimes that is the case. i'm merely looking at my options, geting feedback about other companies.

as "same thing" i meant rating for amps. I will be contacting them tomorrow. it was a question has anyone dealt with them?

Im looking at this 220 amp alternator with an overdrive pully, anyone messed with this company? i called mechman and they wanted 499 for a 1995 chevy lumina 3.1l v6 alt but these guys at power bastards want 225 for the same thing. anyone messed with them?

As always in life like Jay said, shortcuts end in short commings. Might as well buy a new amplifier.

I bought my Sundown Audio 3000d from Db-r took a bit to ship. when i recieved it, it smoked; his assistant soldered the power leads to short and they broke. i sent it back (poorly shipped i might add not knowing and being dumb). the RCA's got crunched in. he fixed it for free then shipped it back for free. A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ workmanship and cheap. i wouldn't buy refurbs from anyone else, the customer service was great, got back to me good and he was always VERY patient with me even when i called most days to get an update.

Shizz=hero

im not really from Kansas but im in Missouri liberty Missouri to be exact! nice to have you here, there are a bunch of good people on here with great info! Julian

i've heard that gorilla glue is pretty tough stuff, haven't experienced it but thought i might throw that into the proverbial swimming pool of glues

you test each coil individual then you can wire either parallel or series

I've always heard SSA was great, i personally own a Fi Bl 15 on a Sundown audio 3000d running at 2 ohms and it BEATS

yeah i already have an fi bl 15 i would agree about the spl competitions.

hmm.. yeah just noticed that. it looks pretty okay for the price. im not quite sure.. anyone else?

I've been looking at the Lanzar OPTI1233D series subwoofers. Specs: * Auto speakers feature custom tooled die-cast aluminum basket * Car subwoofers feature black laminated pulp cone * Oversized 2-inch foam surround * Dual 3-inch high temperature voice coil * Three (3) 125-ounce high density barium ferrite magnets Specifications: * Power: 3,000 watts RMS/6,000 watts peak * Frequency response: 50Hz to 300Hz * Impedance: Dual 1.2 ohms DVC * Efficiency: 87dB (1W/m) I thought Lanzar was usually pretty crappy but these actually look like non-mainstream woofers. if they are any good for 290 dollars they're not very bad.. if they actually handle that much.. some pictures

to be honest you will not hear an audible difference between 1.5kw and 2kw unless you're competing it wouldn't make a difference. Pick whichever fits your budget best, the Bl's are around 300 dollars or so and the NS comes fully loaded 525 dollars. I have the Bl and love it.

Cant go wrong with Xs batteries. or tons of AH.

instead of twisting the wire try pulling it to make it more even and flat, i had the same problems attempting to twist it, it just made it bigger than just pulling on it straight. I hope that makes sense lol.

i run a two amps on my remote wire, nothing bad has come of it.

"First is its weight. Trupan Light is only 80% of the overall weight of regular MDF. This will yield a much lighter enclosure overall" from FC website.

thanks m5

Yeah that's what i've been reading basically. also im worried about the MDF splitting due to screws.

a lot of dust and glue floating around in the air when its being ripped, people coughing up blood, I've heard it cuts evenly and smoother, routes easier, and holds screws much better than MDF. and it's not as hard on equipment as MDF
