  1. Thanks Neal... Let's see what happens during the week. I don't expect a response til Tuesday at the earliest, I do understand people have family and whatnot so I'm not rushing this to get done... We'll see...
  2. I believe Mechman stated that the unit has the smallest pulley available on it. I don't know anywhere I could go to have all that done. I'm kind of at a loss right now, I was even going to get new batteries thinking they were the issue but they rest at 12.76v-12.8v every time I test them. As I said under driving conditions the unit performs well for my power category, but under normal conditions of daily usage, idle suffers beyond safe levels. I couldn't even imagine what my car would run like in the summer. Also, I'd probably lose my warranty on the unit by modifying it to work properly.
  3. Yea, would've been ordered already if they had one available. :-(
  4. Yea, it may have been some wasted energy on my part but I didn't want to have to go through months of trouble shooting with Mechman either. I'm annoyed but depending on Mechman and the way they handle this situation, that may change my feelings. I have to keep my cool and hope thar Mechman makes thus right with little effort in my part.
  5. Sloop I've redone wiring. Checked connections but nothing has improved. Idle performance with the heater on level 2 and no music consistently drops below 12v into the high 11s. Either there is something wrong with the alternator or it does NOT have the performance it should have. I don't think I should be sitting on the accelerator at stop lights just to keep my heater and lights working like they should. My lights dim without audio being played as well. Above 1k is fine but I believe the alternator should produce 12.5-12.8v which should at least maintain the vehicle's system. Its almost borderline shut off feeling when I idle without music once the car is warm. I am going to email Mechman about the situation and see where we can go from there. I am.not happy that I think I will now have to pay my mechanic once again for removal and installation. Hopefully if worse comes to worse, mechman will offer a refund if this cannot be corrected,
  6. Only if Ramrod shows up
  7. Shyt, 3hr ride.... Not sure about that one... I've almost got everything going good in my car too.. Need to upgrade rear battery and front stage ... would be nice though...
  8. Like the flying through the stars idea and look.
  9. Don't like the font at all. Too hard to read on a phone and doesn't match well. Looks like a Halo type font. Not loving it, other than that. Its nice
  10. BTW.... lets see some videos bro!!!

    yea, it's spot on as well... P800PRS ... one of the "animations" is a voltage reading of front battery....
  17. Shogen replied to Shogen's topic in Videos
    watch in HD for best experience!! lolz
  18. ahhh... see I never heard that before... So depending on diameter of the port, good idea to have the same in distance away from the wall ... So if I do a 6" port @ 17-18" long ... I'm looking between 33-34hz ... with 3 cubes net...
  19. UPDATE LADIES: Installed a new item in the car... its a crescendo audio bc3500 and its running at 2ohms!!! The car runs exactly the same as did the JL amplifier I previously had installed. While driving or rev to 1500-1700 rim the voltage stays at 14.6-14.9v !! Very stable but again idle suffers tremendously. :-( . I defense would like to beef up the electrical a bit more. Thinking of adding some oddyssey battery or batteries into the equation. And will order some 2/0 wire for alternator to rear.
