[QUOTE="Lasherž, post: 8705861, member: 679555"] Well consider me corrected. I've never heard of an alternator dragging that much on an engine (half rpm? that's crazy even after jumper cables are disconnected), AC compressors basically always drag more if it's not an HO alt. I'd still check the air filter at a minimum for shits and giggles to see how dirty it is, but if your problem's solved I guess your problem's solved. Sweet, can't wait to see pictures. Something to keep in mind while installing the LC7i and something I forgot to check when I used a similar LOC, use the fader to pick out the speakers that drop out the least with a 60hz tone. I just discovered the other day that my rear stock speakers put out virtually no bass compared to my door stock speakers and I tapped the rear for my LOC. Oops! The LC line from Audiocontrol can bring back bass, but having a stronger source in the first place for those frequencies is always preferable by far. Nothing wrong with a little ricer status if it's done cleanly and doesn't give anyone seizures lol. [/QUOTE]
