k got some pics of the alt location.

I let it sit for a bit and I guess from what I read online that if it gets a little dust on or in it. The cd player doesn't eject cds. There is a disk in there that plays fine. It can't eject it though. How would I fix this?

I may be able to get access by removing the front fans, radiator, and intercooler. And the grills in front of those. That would take forever since the whole turbo setup is in the way. Have to undo all the hoses that go to the intercooler and everything. My car is brand new as well. One guy on my cars forums had to switch the alt. It took him 6 hours and that is the base caliber. No turbo kit. So it will be quite abit longer because of my turbo.

yeah I know I always do it that way. But I can't even get to the back of the alt I'm trying to say. Can't get to the positive stud on the alt at all. Gotta pull the engine out to do so. The alt is located in the mid section of the engine. Not like other cars that I previously owned that were easy to do the big 3. You can't do it from any angle. Intercooler is in the way then behind it is the rad. On top there are way to many things. Too narrow to get at it from the bottom. I'm going to be running about 4k rms. So I think I should upgrade that wire. I got XS Power batts waiting to go in.

2009 Dodge Caliber Srt-4. So the turbo makes it pretty packed in the engine bay. The wire goes into this thing on one side then a wire is attached on the other side and goes to the battery. It comes stock with a 140A alt. And I talked to every alternator company out there to see if they have one or could make one. No one as of yet could make one. Because there is a solid wire or something in these alts. And they told me these stock alts that come with the car are very solid and put out more then rated.

And the audio only when playing a cd sounds like it goes in and out. Like goes a little lower and goes back up in volume. You could hear the bass go low and then go a bit louder. My ipod just stays a certain volume. Works fine with ipod.

It's not the cd ejecting. It's the faceplate not moving all the way down. Like it stops half way and seems jammed.

Like it seems the faceplate is jamming. Like it doesn't come down how it used to. You can't really even see the cd slot. Just tilts down.

I heard many people that buy from DC Power have to wait long to receive their alt. I guess it has to do with making them custom. Some may just be easier to make and bolt up.

cool. I only have the free acct though

I never got a paypal fee before wtf. On my bank acct it says " PAYPAL MSP 34.18 ". Why is their a fee?

ain't that for companies? Like payroll?

yeah they just used my bank account instead of my credit card. So that's why I was like wtf is this paypal msp in my bank account. I never use my bank acct to buy stuff through paypal. Only credit cards. It was just money I sent to a guy on the caraudio forum for a fuse holder. I just didn't know that it charged my bank acct instead of my credit card.

lol I'm 21. I got it figured out now anyway. lol

Ohio generator are the best alts out there and very good people. Phone them and you get a tech right off the bat because they do the sales as well. Every alt they sell comes with a computer printout for your alt saying how it performs.

It seem to be impossible to get at the alternator in the Caliber Srt4. I need to upgrade the wiring from the alt to battery with 1/0 wire. I looked where the alt was and I couldn't get at it from any direction. Why the hell would they put the alt pretty much in the middle of the engine lol. The alt connections are going in toward the engine. I can't even see the wires or other side of the alt. Guys have any opinions to get at it?

I am going to be using my crossfire vr4000d. 4K @ 2ohms. I believe my 2009 caliber srt4 has a 140A stock alt. No H.O. alts are made for this car yet I don't think. What kind of electrical would you guys do for 4K?

Just waiting for mine to Denim lol. I am trying to get my t/s specs for my subs currently being made. Then Thumpper is going to make me a beauty hopefully in time. lol

hmm thinking about it lol. But I'm in Canada. Might be quite a bit to ship.

Only thing it will probably be quite a bit to ship here. I almost bought a termlab awhile back for myself. So I could tune and just get louder.

Their is going to be a sound comp in my city on June 12th. They have a meter. But they want to use two of their random songs they pick for spl and sq. It's understandable for the sq part of the sound off. But the same song for the spl part? I want to use tones. They are just going to pick music. Which if the song has a 30hz bass line. If I'm tuned to 40hz and play it, my subsonic filter would just cut it out. One guy said "Thats not how it works at a normal sound off. Everyone uses the same track. That's how it's been at every other sound-off I have attended. this isn't my first." What should I say?

I don't care anymore this comp is hideous. He just told me if they don't like it, don't show up. Well since there's not many systems in my town only the judge and sponsors will show up lol. I know every person that has a system in my town. I told them about this and they are not interested in it anymore either. They said they are doing it this one song for spl way so they don't get people complaining and it's fair. Well it looks to me that a ton are complaining on how they are doing it because it's bs. And they don't care about are opinions on how to make it better. I could have 12 cars show up or tell them not to because it's gonna suck.

I just added the db drag rules. Owner from next city is lending us the meter. He used to do db drag in the early 2000's. said this : "not iasca. DB Drag yes. Scott from sight and sound said he used to do db drag there. I think it will be easier just to let him be the judge. he probably would know these rules: dBDRA Rules - Master Index The program material may consist of music, test tones, or any other type of recorded audio signal."

yeah I'm probably going to be tuned low anyway. Like 30-35hz. Box is gonna be made by Pound that sound. So it will be good either way.

go on facebook and say under mine what you just said. Incompatible Browser | Facebook I'm Justin lol. This isn't a sanctioned event or anything. Should say "Justin has been to a sanctioned event with me and I compete or something lol"
