The belt I grabbed was too small, so i have the next size up but I have yet to install that. For some reason, the cold seemed to have an effect on the belt, when I first got the alt in, my belt would squeal all day erry day, but now, I can beat on my system and I'll only get a squeal every now and again. How ever, it IS still squealing, so I do eventually have to swap my stock belt out

I have this Sunday afternoon set aside for the install. It should only take me less than 30 minutes to do the install really (had stock alt off twice now). I have four different sized belts to try out as well. Obviously the stock size will be tried first. I will keep you updated asap. If you want me to call you on Sunday PM me your cell Kyle. Ooo that brings up a good question, I just ordered an alt from you guys like an hour ago, Should the stock belt fit the Pro alt? Or will i need to find a different size belt for it? Didn't even realise that it might need a different size than what i have. What alt are you buying? Because using the stock belt for my car, which is a 1998 honda civic (basically your car), is NOT an option. Squealing, squealing ERRYWHERE! Thankfully I'm swapping them out today, but trust me, stick with a smaller belt

I'm actually leaving in an hour or so to get my stock belt changed out for a smaller one I bought. If it fixes the problem I'll post it up here, otherwise I might need your help after all

Guess I just got unlucky, every time I start the car in the morning, I just hear a loud screech for a good 10 seconds, so keeping the stock belt is not an option for me

Nah, it's all good, swapping out the belts is the easiest thing for me to do, I was just looking for a heads up that swapping the belts was something I was gonna have to do.

I know h/o alternators run smaller pulleys, but I was under the assumption that you can still run the stock alternator belt with them. The squealing and squeaking is getting to the point where this weekend I have to get the stock belt swapped out for a smaller one. I'm running a small eclipse 4ch for my door speakers and I got a DC 2k on my sub, it's a custom 12'in. Also got a C&D Tech Ups-12 490 in the trunk as well.

Another bump Got the alternator installed, ran into one issue, because the pulley is so much smaller on this alternator, i have the alternator belt adjusted to go as tight as it can go, and there is still enough slack in the belt to squeal every now and again. You should give people a heads up that you should run a smaller sized belt with your alternators Also, I'm still waiting on that picture of the "birth" sheet for my alternator Other than that, the alternator is working well, all my voltage drop is GONE!

bumpy, just waiting on that picture to be sent to my email

normally yes, but I don't have a profile saved yet for that model so it won't *print* the output curve. I do have a pic of it on my phone, pm me your emaill addy and I will email it to you.. Thanks again, Rob Pmed you my email address, whenever you can send me that picture, please do. I'd love to see what this alternator will do

Finally got my alternator!! Now I just gotta get this bish installed. quick question though, isnt this supposed to come with a "birth" sheet? To show what is does on your test bench? Because there wasn't one in the box

:fing34: Good to hear, I'm really glad that this is finally gonna be on the way to my house!

Received tracking number, says it's to be delivered tomorrow by 3:00pm Will update when it is in my hands

Yea man, I'm waiting on my civic alternator, not an accord one

What have you been waiting on?

He said you'll have it by the end of the week... Chill. And it looks like it will be overnighted so even if you got a tracking number it would be kinda pointless. And yeah I don't think car audio sales for DC touch their commercial sales for like fleet trucks and stuff. Dude, I've been waiting for over a month for this, I have the right to ask for an update on my alternator in my own thread
