So I just replaced my 12 year old alternator, because of mad voltage drop even with out my subs on.
Got a brand new 220 amp and it's still the same maybe even worse.
Wtf could this be? I also have big 3 done in 1/0

The battery is about 2 months old. I got the best one at oriellys that wasnt a gel cell
Bad ground is a possibility. I'll check.
And did you say big 3 caused voltage drop?? I'm gonna take off my 1/0 quick and see if that helps anything
And that's the truth.
Big 3 doesn't cause voltage drop unless you did something wrong. The point of the Big 3 is to reduce voltage drop

I know, that's why I was asking, I was referring to this guys post
I removed my big 3 and it made no changes. I tightened up all my connections to and from battery and alternator, no changes.i had voltage drops to cause of the big three. maybe your alt needs to break in?
