two altinators? lol
lol me mate is runnin shit loads of audio and neons everything! he is mad! the car dont even start unless its all off! he thought gettin a new battery would work but i tried tellin him that aint the problem! his altinator just aint gona handle it! its an 85 vk. what do you guys recon of a second battery and second altinator etc to just run his flashy stuff? its a serious system! 5 15 inch earthquake subs which are no joke 2000w! lol mad base! just the earthquake 6by9s are 750w! anyways yea what you guys recomend?
"..of mice and men.."
Probably better off going to a larger amp alternator, say a 120amp, or more, and then running a second battery, and big capacitors for the stereo's amps.
That's what a lot of guys do with big sound systems, the set-up can get pretty complex though.

yea but ya gotta change a bunch of other stuff if ya change over the altinator right? i got another old altinator sittin in the shed which i think is 120 but not sure. the car runs fine and took us forever to fix wiring problems on the engine so dont really wanna go changin shit there. what would be the down side of a second separate battery and altinator?

if its stock its either 45A or 55A 6 or eight. they are crap. 140A alternators are about 250 bucks, single wire hookup which means your battery warning light will no longer work, but there is no need to change anything else. just run the fat-arse cable supplied to the battery and away you go.
PS. there are no bosses on the engine to fit two alternators and the drain on your crank pulley would just not be worth it.
:):):)
ari where do u get the altinators?
sorry for hacking
thanks

ahh see ari has a reason why it woulnt be a good idea! we will go the bigger altinator!he only been able to run 2 subs and one amp atm cos it drains too much power! cant wait to hear it all crankin! lol and cant wait to say haha when the old girl rattles apart from all the doof doof! thanx guys all ya input very appreciated as always!
just curious mate, 5 15" subs???? how do they all fit? i have one 15" and it requires a 60L sealed box not leaving that much room in my VX boot once the amps n everytthing are in there.... even a wagon 5 subs would be packed solid i would think lol. can he even see out the back?
but there is plenty of high performance alternators available, sure its already been mentioned, i didnt read through them all. let us all know how it all goes.
