Sure does. Attractive, but curious as to why they use only a 2 layer, 2.5" coil. Large enclosure suggestions for the car audio crowd. Low power handling, keep the weight down, reduce inductance. No need for a big coil if big powerhandling and motor strength is not the goal. I know they suggest a ported cabinet, but with such a high total q and low resonance, I would say it is more of a sealed design driver. While no Bl is listed, I bet it is not a really strong motor. Frankly, I like the looks of it. This might be a really solid design for the 4 way IB manifold I have thought about putting in my attic. I would hook it at the battery. The alt will have too much demand if you hook it right at the alt. It is best to feed from the reserve of the battery, and allow the ECU to make it's calculations based on the battery readings. In many cases there are inductive probes inline on the feed wires from the battery to the alt. So it is best to avoid linking downstream of the battery. But he is doing the big 3 so I can't see any difference if connected to either. The inductive probes read current. If you pull amplifier current from a charging stud on an alt it pulls reserve current to the alt through the inductive probe. Burp your system and amp clamp the power wire to the amp. Next, burp the system and run the amp clamp between the alt and battery. Get back to me with the results . Even running the big 3 you have the current load increased exponentially through the main alt feed if you attach the amp power to the alternator on the factory line. You can almost think of battery reserve as a shock absorber. I still can't understand how with the proper gauge and length wires done for the big 3, there will be a difference between connecting to the battery or the alternator. How will there be any difference when it's like one big continuous wire and it's just either of the sources connected first then second? With the big 3 added to the picture I see it as a singular wire that all the power is passing through. Both the alternator and the battery are on that wire. At which end you attach the wire that goes into your amp is no different than the other. If you connect to the battery it's just like you used an extension that connects to the alternator. The battery acts as a buffer/filter if you will. It will keep voltage and current steady. It can suuplt instant current as needed, where as if you hook it directly to the alt, you are asking the alt to do this job. The alt will then ramp up current and keep it there. Ask yourself why the manufacturers hook there fuse panels to the battery versus the alt. Indeed. No, bud. I am not pulling my pants down.

I resolve to be more frugal. I am paying off 4 big ticket items by june, and will only be buying 1 new one. I am loving the 2013 TRX450R in tri-color...

And look at how bad Indy was last year without him. That alone should have won him MVP last year without even playing. You can not change your season with just a running back alone. Everyone on the Vikings played decent this year, including their QB, Christian Ponder. Check his stats. Put AP on the Jets, they still lose, put Peyton in there, instant playoff team. Indeed. Peyton is the only old school QB left. He runs his own offense out there. Everything that happens on that field is a result of his vision and adaptability. The OC is not calling in plays. Most of the young guys don't realize it, but those of us who grew up watching ball in the 70s 80s, and early 90s really got to see the great QBs who ran their own offense. Marino, Elway, Kelly, Montana, Young, and Staubach. Back in those days that was a difficult task. But now today with aerials of every play, and dozens of people watching and analyzing each play and adapting for each down through electronic communication to the field makes this exponentially more difficult. Make no bones about it, as difficult as the QB position is, Peyton takes on an additional burden, and he does it exceptionally well. AP gets handed the ball. While Denver looked rough at the beginning of the year, it was obvious that once Peyton found his groove they exploded. They went from a 2-3 start to an undefeated 11 game stretch at the end. What kind of air lines and why is such a tiny leak so important?

While AP has been awesome, you can not deny it to Peyton. The man was on the brink of retirement, hadn't thrown a ball in a year, worked with 100% new everything, and look what he's done. Agreed. No way AP is a most valuable player. His feat is individual and his team is not going to the playoffs dominantly because of him. Peyton brought it home in a totally dominating fashion.

Holy shit I am tired. Spent a few hours riding with my son and the grandkids are spending the night. I love my baby granddaughter, but she wears my old ass out.

Thank God this homeowner had a gun. A violent home invasion during a childrens' sleep over party was quelled when the homeowner shot and killed one and injured 2 other invaders. A man defends a whole slumber party of children against home invaders firing guns! Thank goodness he was able to protect everyone. http://www.news10.net/news/article/222195/2/1-dead-in-Sacramento-home-invasion

I had to share this little shot... This is my youngest son with the AK. I am sure I will catch hell for it, but I still chuckle.

I had one. IMO it was the most worthless weapon I have ever owned. It is ugly, sloppy, and it feels like a cheap POS. Mine was a Romanian AK, I had several 30 round mags... I think I fired it maybe 20 times. It was nearly brand new when I sold it. It is sitting with my son's Remington Nylon (a quite rare magazine feed model) and my Ithaca Model 37 Deerslayer (in 16Ga I might add).

np bud. Hope the info was worthwhile.

That is actually my work laptop, but I have the same information on the SnapOn scanner (Verus) I bought 6 months ago. My new scanner (the Maxidas) is not quite that powerful or well appointed. I use SnapOn's Shopkey information system which is essentially Mitchell. But the Verus scanner runs windows.

I guess I should state the figures are in ohms.

Keep that shit. We got 3" and the idiots on the road are driving me nuts. No, send it to me. I've got another good hour worth of work to do on the sled, but that can be done by 8am if needed. Two little stupid problems. Smashed o-ring in the carb to seal up the float needle which caused the flooding add no fuel shutoff and you are wet. TPS sensor plug installed backwards. Fucking drain means pulling the engine. Pulled carb, reeds, plugs, and exhaust and tipped on her side in every which way and pulled recoil until she stopped spitting. Letting her air out overnight. *wondering if I should squirt some oil anywhere before starting her up. Oil was premixed at about 100:1 for insurance purposes since I had pulled the oil lines and didn't trust my arbtrary oil pump calibration. Figured a shot down the plugs and through the reeds and a few pulls before turning on the ignition may be a good idea if the gas washed everything down. Even though my guess is that 100:1 is way more than needed to keep everything okay as long as I let it idle and get happy. I would put some oil in the cylinder and crank it for a bit with the fuel off and plus out. If the walls are wasked the rings will never seal and you will have no compression. Just a tablespoon of oil will add a quick seal to the rings and cranking it with the plug out will allow it to toss the excess and disperse the oil throughout the cylinder. Sure. I view scan data. Most manufacturers use an input of 5 volts reference, and we see what is typically a logarithmic voltage at the ECM. Some use dual stage sensors which can be tricky. Fortunately for you, you know someone with a ton of info available to them . Here is the resistance chart for you.

It is system restore. Just access the folder and select the restore period you want to delete. System restore on win7 + takes up huge space.

I am originally from Buffalo, and I catch shit when I bitch about the 20s here in NC. People don't realize that you acclimate, and I lived in the SoCal for 10 years. Down there 60 is cold. I get used to winters a bit quicker (although now, thanks to old age and arthritis every cold day is a lesson in pain) but those first cold snaps are difficult to get used to.

We sit on the same bench. Your "asshole" just makes me curious. We sit on the same bench. Your "asshole" just makes me curious. Hmmmmm....... I was just about to say something.

That's hilarious. Better drink up before the show. Way ahead of you. A friend of mine brought in some awesome apple pie moonshine for me for Christmas. Very tasty, and very strong. 120proof strong, or 180proof strong? 180 proof strong. Not store bought stuff... back woods stuff. That is the best part about having moved to NC, the moonshine is awesome.

Julian is awesome for everything apple in So Cal.
