yea, i just bought tint for all my windows except windsheild of course, 5%. Bought it froma guy for 25$, he types in the make, year, type of your car and the machine feeds it out cut precisely to ur windows. Im not gunna lay it myself i heard it was a *****. But anyways, you you know the amps of a stock alty for a accord? Cause 250 for a 200A alty isnt that pricey.

$250?!? Where are you buying this alternator from? All the 200 amp alts I've seen are around $350. The stock alt for the Accord is 90 amps.

Well i forgot to mention its a stolen alty, which is fine with me casue they all work the same. Oh yea, what about powering a SS 6,500d..............?

my gen accord uses an 85A not 90A,actually it could but whatever. Stolen? You punk i hate people who steal sh!t from me,don't suppport them theives.

lol, i kno theives are bad but this is for 250, brand new. Really dont feel like spending 350 on an alty. I dont kno if im pushing it, but what about a soundsteam 6,500d? with ungraded electrical?

let me put it this way,you can't have 1000watts rms on an accord without doing the batt and big III, you cannot exceed 2000watts without changing the alty.

****, how many batteries should i add in addition to alty, and big 3

 

[Megalomaniac 5,000+ posts]

at least 1 more, after that it is a matter of how long u r going to run off the batt before ur car dies.

I kinda disagree. I run 1600rms with stock alt, stock battery. Big 3 has been done. I know I'm not getting the full 1600, but it's **** near close that.

Anyways, a stolen alt?! Real smart thing to buy not knowing who made it, what the real condition of it is (it may just look new), or if it even works at all. To tell you the truth, I hope you blow $250 on that alt and have it not work and you unable to get your money back. Maybe then you'd learn some ethics and not support thieves.

its ok, itll be worth it. i dont drive with my lights on at night anyways

thats not the point,the point is voltage drops(u dont want that)

 

[Jared530 10+ year member]

how do i keep my voltage stable? cap?

If your engine is off and you are running off the batteries you might need a Cap.

but if your engine is on,you are now running of the alty so you would need a high HO alty.

If you really insist on haveing a Cap get a 1 farad you shouldnt need more than 1.
