[QUOTE="fatryan, post: 1265285, member: 550026"] well the way you stated it above, you made it sound like the alt isnt on until a certain rpm, which isnt true. i know it doesnt put out its rated amperage until a certain rpm, but it still puts out more at idle than a stock alt (not sure what though). anyways, i DO think i have some sort of electrical problem because when i use my turn signal, my bat gauge jumps up and down a V to V and 1/2 every time it blinks. which is really freaking weird. it did that with my stock alt, stock bat, no BIG 3 and no system too though. but either way, for my lights to dim from 1400-1500w hits is not unordinary, even with a HO alt and BIG3. This is the first car i ever did a big 3 in, but ive had 2 other cars (92 blazer and 92 taurus) with systems and HO alt, and they both had diming problems on high bass songs at high volumes. happens with all of my friends systems too (although only 1 of my friend has a HO alt, and none have BIG3). Its not like its ******* out the juice then taking a while to recharge it. it only dims for the split second that the bass hits. [/QUOTE]
