[QUOTE="Mooncatt, post: 8674481, member: 676968"] If you're referring to a drop in charging voltage, I doubt the big 3 upgrade would help. Mine only had the factory Bose system in it, but even without any major power consumption voltage would still dip well below 13V regularly. From my understanding, it's supposed to do this at times and sounds like it was to help protect the battery from excessive wear and possibly help with fuel mileage, but don't quote me on that. The manual didn't give a lot of specifics. If you're talking about a voltage drop from a big bass hit, then I would agree the big 3 update may help, depending on how much power the system is using.
