ok i was always planning on upgrading my electrical but i might have a orion 2500d coming in a lil sooner than i expected so what do i need to run it ??? right now i have a stock 140a alt and battery..no big 3 and 4g wire....would i be ok running it at 3.4ohms for now on that charging system untill i upgrade (its rated 1200rms @ 4ohms)???? soon i will be getting 1/0g wire, big 3, new alt my second question here is a good old irragi vs. nathan....idk what to get??? i can get a 300a alt for about $350 from irragi and its way more at nathans....i know nothing about alts so if someone could give me some insight there that would be greratley appreciated!!! thanks!!!
Iraggi alts FTW. There have been several people on here who had problems with EA alts. And when you're choosing an alternator, don't forget to look at the idle amps rating.
i also kind of want to run my stock battery still....would that be ok with the 260a alt??? im going to upgrade sooner or later but i have been dropping $$$$ left and right lately on this system and i just need some time to recover some funds...
You'll be fine on a stock battery as long as your alternator is strong enough.I always tell people to stay away from Excessive Amperage alternators because they lack build quality and reliability,just yesterday I was told of ANOTHER Excessive Amperage that didn't put out what it was supposed to and was having problems with it,it was a 200Amp rated alternator only putting out 150Amps,sounds like an Excessive Amperage alternator to me...I would never buy from them because they make garbage alts at times,sure you may get a good one from them but it's a hit or miss type of deal with those guys.Buy an Iraggi alternator and even if you do have problems(Which isn't likely)Dominick has great customer service and is very helpful.I've never heard of problems with any Iraggi alternators and I use one myself and it's pretty solid.
if nathan is so bad why is some of the top competitors running his alts? iraggi and excessive use the same parts company roe is selling them i have one it it works great anyone on here actually have one besides me dont flame em until u try em and all the people that might have had problems have they ever talked to nate about it cuz i know him personally and he wouldnt let that happen to someone like that
Well, I have heard of a few people on here saying they talked to Nate and they said he's an azzhole.I can flame him all I want lol.Just like you can flame me for saying what I just did.I've heard just as many bad things about EA alts as I heard good.
rob have u ever talked to nate personally hes not an azzhole at all he even does all our shipping for us so we get a business discount hes not the kind of person that is an azzhole
yeah I know their for different cars, but dang thats a bigg difference. I mean, If i got a 240alt I would have 170ish at idle. Yet he can get a 240 and it has way less idle than my 260. Its just so sad.
