update on the f150 w/new box and.... another surprise haha

Recommended Posts

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!

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

Just an FYI, when I was building alts, I would routinely test stock component 3Gs which would output 180 amps.
