Ok, please let me know if this is in the wrong section.

I am getting some stuff done....haha i said some :laugh: . But im digressing, i want to know if i am going to be starving my battery/alternator (battery is new as of 3 months, alternator new oem tho as of 3 months and new electrical wiring). Would the following put too much strain on the battery?

S-AFC II, A/F Gauge, n2o gauge, fuel pump rewire kit w/ 190lph pump. Umm i think thats all that i am going to use....wait i have upgraded speakers (blankput 190s all teh way around, and it has a clarion head unit which i am not to fond of but previous owner had it on so oh well LOL). I have a udp so less power :confused:

What do you guys think?

uhhh no, i think those use minimal power, and guys are running million watt subs with out any trouble. youll be fine im doing the same thing.. eventually
 
haha nice chris

BTW i'm hanging out wit all these vr4's,supras, turbo eclipse (really hot chick owns it ill tell you later :p ), 3000GT's v6 dohc and i used your joke LOL "I will no longer fear your turbo.........hold on let me open my bottle :p " they all laughed haha

EDIT: I've been thinking about running a small system. The wiring is all ready done from hte previous owner, and i just found out a client at the law office which i work at works at jl audio so i can probably get a good price on some shit. I would get a 600w amp & like 2 10" probably 300 watts each.....nothing big or anything i havent done it yet because of the extra weight on my already heavy dsm.
 
Scrap that sound system. I like the way it runs with the speakers, i might want an in-dash tv.....does anyone know if jl audio makes a in-dash tv? If not f-that cause they are pretty expesnive :cool:

I don't even think JL has started to break into head units in general yet. I have a Clarion VRX935VD though and love it.

well i wrote that before i got the 5 million IMs telling me you got it :p :laugh:

ill help ya out
 
If your worried about your battery, get a voltometer. When I had my system, mine got real crazy when the subs hit. On a loud hit, it would drop about 2 volts. It never went below 11 though.
 
yea man, i went back to work an hr late off my lunch break :p i said, it's ok i got my wet kit in the mail today :cool: Then i busted out in a sing & dance....


LOL but really it was BADASS, my boss understoon why i was late (he likes cars)....My friend had a purge kit in his car & hit the purge when his boss was watching, he later told his boss that his car was breaking & the guy gave my friend a raise OMG

Snoop: where'd you get your valve cover? I need to get a new one and i dont know where.
