[QUOTE="adam71, post: 299680, member: 549079"] You're right about that. I would say as long as you're not really getting on it nothing really bad should happen.......for the most part your amps just won't put out as much. It would be like how some amps are rated @ 12.5 volts compared to 14.4 volts. So as long as you're not trying to wake up the neighborhood at an idle there shouldn't be a problem. My friend put a smaller pulley on his alt so that he's getting the max out of his alt at idling speed. Problem is if he does too much highway speed driving he will burn it up.....so its a give and take I guess. So I would say be sensible and bump responsibly.
