  1. the big three is not a cure all.. it is done to stiffen your charging system.. DC voltage is only as good as its weakest link.... and an OEM car is not built for anything to pull 85 plus amps.. IE the 8~10 gauge wire for the + off the alt and the same for ground,. when doing the big three you are only preping your car for more draw.... your problem at this point is not enough amp hours on your cell.. you need a bigger battery.. or to add a cell in the trunk. then later of course a H/o alt. are you bringing your RPMs up on your car to around 2K while doing demos? if not you should be.. a 60 amp alt at idle is only putting out around 20 amps at idle if that. so if course that sundown is gonna take that little power thats in your battery and kill it right away.. i would add a cell fast or stop pushing it so hard for now... cause killing that battery like that and then putting the stress on that alt will kill it. alts are made to cycle on .. off ..on.. when they run none stop heat will cook the grease on your bearings, the reficater will stick open and melt then start to cook your stater winding. did someone say that they dont fuse factory alt leads??? i have never seen one with out. somtimes they wont look like a fuse. just looks like a lump in the wire.. and thats a fuseble link. just my two cents.
  2. just use someones termlab...

    well i called on a"the perfect location" but they want lots of doe.... 1000 bucks for the day. but it would be worth it... but i would need like 50 people to show up willing to pay 20 bucks to get in...:| of course that would include metering and what not. but i dont see this place working... i told him NO FUCKING WAY. when he asked about 1000 bucks.. so he told me to let him think about it for the weekend and call him tuesday,. here is the location... Home Page i told him we only needed the big barn (in the pics) and restrooms. ca can BBQ and bring coolers for our drinks... jegger and beer for me!

    Got a noise citation :(

    And where do you live? 1000 is insane for a noise citation. sounds like florida to me.. i lived there for like 14 years... it is indeed the loudest state... soooooo many dope boys with re tarted loud cars and trucks.. then you have tons of show cars with walls more 160 DB vans and suvs then anywhere else. they will ticket you impound your car.. and throw you in jail once you get to a certin point.

    I Give Up

    i know some of those units only handle so much power on the high side... so depending on your factory sound system it just maybe a plain and simple problem of too much voltage on the input.. in witch case it would have happend anyway .. and it will just keep happing.. but even tho your anger may be displaced i do see where your coming from and i have been guilty of it my self. good luck.

    crazy crazy night.

    i loaded up my mom and the little lady to head down to pluckers wings for dinner. i get on the interstate and a car is getting on the ramp and i mash my gas to switch lanes and give space for on coming traffic.. and once i get in the middle lane i take my foot off the gas and the truck keeps going!! my peddle is stuck to the floor! my 5.4 is moster mashing full speed ahead my chick looks at me like what the fuck. i mash the gas a few more times tryin to get it un stuck with no luck... so i shut it off and pop it in nutrual at the speed of 85 miles an hour. coast about 1 miles off the ramp into a gas station.. pop the hood and i can not see what the problem is because all motors are coverd my plastic now days.. with no tools and a car full of females i break the plastic off the top and start checking my TB it seems a little sticky so i mess with it.. i get it to idle again and i limp it to the part store... some TB cleaner and some new return springs and no help... i try to limp home at idle but soon relize that with the hills in my area it will not make it. so like a county ass cracker i am.. i fold some bizz card and grab a papper clip and rig this shit up to give me 2 grand worth of motor speed.. and make it home. trying to forget my problems with my lincoln we load up in one of my other cars.. and head to chillis... the WORST dinning experience ever.. god it was shitty... got home drank a bottle of jager and had a little fun..

    crazy crazy night.

    160 bucks i need a new cable
  16. i can put a 6000 watt amp on a single 8 inch kicker VR and it would be fine.... its the user and the controls that make or break this question... you can blow a BTL on a 800 watt amp if you dont know what your doing... see where this is going? amps dont blow subs .... users blow subs. that amp is no where close to 2400 watts by the way, that amp will work on that sub.. but your gonna need to place your setting very carefully.. as thats dirty power IMO. the BTL handles over 3500 watts clean daily power if used correctly.

    Center port vs. port on the side?

    i noticed that with a port at one side of the box with port back subs back causes the sub that is closest to the port to bottom out first. thats why i went to a center port
