its not just that ill do the effort but im scared all mess somthing up because the power wire that runs from the batter to the alt it ****ing splits off like 3 times and goes somewhere else its like tiny wires idk wtf that is

Stock alt on that car is a 130 amp unit. Not trying to be an ***, but i would lay some of that $500 aside. Those 2.7l engines have very high failure rates.

are you saying that engine isnt good for high power ?

i dont know it only has 35 thou miles so it should last a while

You could pay an automotive place to install the alternator and knock out the big 3. It shouldn't cost a whole hell of a lot...

I have a backhoe and have thought of digging graves lots of times. People around here don't spend big money on funerals, though. And being that I know pretty much everyone, I'd feel obligated to dig most of them for free. I can't afford to do that, so I haven't bothered with it...

you might need to add relay to power fans if you havent done that... remote wire doesnt have enough to power fans.. when remote wire is stressed trying to power fans amp wont get enough to keep it on so, amp goes protect.

i fixed the fans now i just got a toggle switch on them and they are wired to power on the amp instead of remote

Those fans look like crap and they aren't necessary. Please remove them...

but the amp still gets hot ive done some testing it doesnt get hot when i turn the car power on but when i start up the car the amp gets hot must be because of the tiny wire running from the battery to the alternator i really need to do this big 3

Once you install everything correctly, that amp will be fine. Seriously, there are literally hundreds of people running bigger amps than that, at lower impedances, with no fans. None of those people have issues.

The fans look absolutely ridiculous, man. Remove them...
