Posted March 4, 201213 yr well iv been wanting to get a nice tuner on my truck for better gas mileage and more HP. well my buddy came across a sct livewire for REALLY cheap so i scooped it up. i can tell a HUGE difference in acceleration and top end power. it also makes the transmission shift a lot different so it squeezes all the juice out the motor haha. i also have the new box i built in.. i do a little demo to show the voltage drop. i was surprised. at full tilt, my voltage doesnt drop below 14V.... stock alt, not even the big 3 done..... anyways here ya go... ENJOY!
March 4, 201213 yr So aq3500 at full tilt w/o V drop, and stock alt? Can you elaberate on how you achieved this?
March 4, 201213 yr Author well idk about what full tilt really means but im guessing cranked up is the short way to put it? haha i just turned up the music to where i usually listen to it at which is normally all the way up and i didnt drop below 14V at idle (650rpm) it drops to 12.6 at the lowest.i have the stock 130amp alt, no big 3 and no extra batteries. i had the engine at 2000rpm and voltage only dropped .4
March 4, 201213 yr Just an FYI, when I was building alts, I would routinely test stock component 3Gs which would output 180 amps.
March 4, 201213 yr Author haha i just happen to come acorss the tuner cheap. i only gave $200 for it with all cords and everything and the exact same tuner us $509 brand new...
