Deka intimidator 9a31

any ideas on what my voltage might go up to?

It drops down pretty low at around 9-11v usually. measured with a fluke the amp draw is about 240a-250a. I have gain and bass boost set to minimum.

this is with stock electrical, only big 3 done, running 1/0 gauge wire.

wanting a 220 or bigger alt, and mayb 2 of the dekas.

yehhh i like my 2
If i full tilt my ab500.1 @ .5 ohm they mighttt touch 10.9....but thats stock alt and one run of 4ga wire

why the **** do you only have 4 gauge while running a 500.1?

What are you doing!!!Your starving that amp!It needs at least 1/0 and if your droping to 10.9v you might smoke the board.

Why buy such a nice amp then skimp on the electrical???
