big 3 '94 honda accord

[Chris Z 10+ year member]

I've been thinking about doing this recently, cuz I'm still getting a bit of voltage drop and such when I'm idling and I gotta rev the car a little bit to get it going good again at loud volumes.

Here is what I'm wondering:

1.) Anyone else done the big 3 on a 94 accord (with pictures)?

2.) Would this be THAT big of a help, without upgrading the alternator and battery? (I've got an Exide battery, 1-2 years old and stock alt [80amps I think])

3.) If 2 is false, then would upgrading to a Kinetic 800 or something help out a lot? (I don't want an extra battery, just an upgrade)

Any help is welcome, thanks.

yes big 3 makes a huge differance. its real easy i can tell u. all it is

gound from batt to the engine block.

ground from batt to the alt casing (best ground and works best for me)

pos. wire from batt to the alt wire.

it takes about 2 hours if done slow or an hour quick. and helps alot!

Turn on the air on or turn the headlights on and the alternator will kick in and you'll be okay at idle. lol.

But what is your set-up now?
