ok, so i was driving around last night, i had my bass hitting, and my turbo timer showed my amp volts dropping down to like 11.7 dropped in 2nd gear and mashed down, well it felt like it cut out when my bass would hit, i turned it down, and this time it didnt cut out, i think its because i was lacking juice from the battery but i could be way wrong any idea??
 
Interesting. That would be my guess. Do you have a Cap on your system? If you don't then maybe you should put one on and see if it helps.
 
Street racing of any sort is not allowed here. Please edit your post to just include the problem at hand and you will receive a prompt response.
 
I dont have one on, it just took a crap so i need to buy a new one, and yes im running a 1000 watt memphis pr amp, pushing an 2010 memphis c3 15" normally drops volts down around 12.1.-5 but since cap to a crap went down under 12
 
I thought this was going to be an exhaust cut out but this works too.

I would say to get a replacement CAP and check the output of the alternator and battery to make sure they are still healthy.

+2. Replace the cap and see if that fixes the issue. It may just be your system sucking all the juice out of the car.
 
It's also possible that it is drawing power so much that the fuel pump isn't getting enough juice. So yea cap. Haha
