With the battery - to ground upgrade I had 14.4v or a tad more. Once I got all of the big 3 done my voltage is now 14.6. The Big 3 does work.
Cool, I'm interested in this venture myself. Post lots of pics,results and stuff.Ok i told my dad, next week we are going to install the new amp (orion 1200) and measure voltage while running everything including the sub amp. then upgrade the big 3 and measure voltage and see what it says. Hopefully it will change his mind about it then. thank you for all your help and the informative posts(most of you) and to help me better understand this stuff. I'll post a thread next week with pictures about it, maybe it will help other people understand also.
Sometimes it takes quite a while longer than 30 minutes...Have you seen where the alternator is on a 2002-2005 Civic SI???!!! It was a pain in the ass man, and I work on them for a living!i dont understand the debate to thi. its a cheap upgrade that takes under 30 min that can get good results especially if you are over 1000 watts rms
why would they use solid bars? stranded wire can transfer more electricity... electrons only move on the surface of the wire. stranded wire = more surface area = more electronsthey use solid bars of very heavy copper

lol 89 chevy s-10 6-8 ft of wire combined for all the runs 15-20 min total. hardest part was the crimps.

The skin effect is negligible @ DC...why would they use solid bars? stranded wire can transfer more electricity... electrons only move on the surface of the wire. stranded wire = more surface area = more electrons
