I left my camera cable at school so I wont be able to get pics for the time being but I got the alt in today and ran it for a while. Thing is awesome puts out just under 200 amps at idle and about 250 at 2200rpm which is way more than i ever expected. Im sure it will come down a bit with break in but its great for the time being. So i got that put in and ran the big three, also wired up all the batts and they sit at 12.9v.

btw for anyone else that has a 4runner out there, if you plan to do a big install, you might just wanna sell it and buy a ford or a jeep.

Yeah man, not much to work with.

They're pretty easy to wire up though. The front doors **** to work with if you have deep mids //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif... have to have an MDF ring cut precisely to space them out.

For the factory amp, if you reach behind it you can unplug it and there will be a standard Toyota plug behind it... and can bypass the amp very easily.

Here's a pic of a 4Runner I did... don't mind the green tape... it's hold the beauty panels on while they dry. Two Orion XTR12's and two HCCA Amplifiers. Oz Elite components in the doors.

More or less I was refering to the issues I had last night with the alternator, I spend almost 5 hours on that and I could have done it on a ford in under an hour. BTW I work in an open, unheated garage and it was 25 degrees last night so it makes the work a little harder.

BTW Nathan from EA is a great guy but I have a lot of frustration with him right now. He built the alt great, don't get me wrong but when he put the heat shroud on the back he made it so it covers a up a small area of where the plug is suppose to clip in. So after I put the alt in and tensioned it, I had to take it all out just to bend and grind a piece of metal that was in the way of everything working. But after all is said and done, I tested the alt again this morning and its still doing just under 200amps at idle which is just unreal and I'm seeing right around 250 at 2200rpm

Where are you getting these amperage measurements from?

lol last night was cold as hell man, why didnt you just wait for today (really nice out). It would have been alot easier to run the wire with the seats out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Nice build cant wait to see it finished with those sexy BTL's
