Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 2675 Registered: Apr-07 | Great guy, great setup! I thought I responded like 3 times already- my phone isn't working too well with the forum Thanks a lot for posting this vid! It's really great when people are happy enough with their purchase to post something like this. A few days ago I updated the site too, his truck is here: http://tejcurrent.com/installs.htm Thanks again for the link! He doesn't say it but he was doing 157 sealed, and was gaining nicely before he needed to recone one of his subs.The recone has some coil rub so he's still in the 57 range, but a little work he'll have a 160 TL/legal for sure. I'm really excited to see the 160, he does 160+ in the kick as is. |

Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois Braaap MX Post Number: 3120 Registered: May-07 | Troy I just now noticed you have a website. The alt brakets look sick! |
|
Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 2676 Registered: Apr-07 | Thanks lol. I have a TON coming out in the next few months! Lots of cool stuff going on too, the website hasn't really had major updates since summer. I'm restructuring things to better navigate the azz of new stuff. Better shopping cart, downloadable installation manuals with video instructions, and plenty more. I'm just so busy with the few dozen brackets I'm working on now I see engines in my sleep lol. |

Gold Member Username: Drant19DUB-C, TX Post Number: 2197 Registered: Aug-07 | Troy, you wouldnt happen to be working on/currently have an alternator for a 2007 Chevy Avalanche 5.3L?? Im looking at upgrading amps and anymore power and I know I need to step up the electrical system. |
|
Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 2678 Registered: Apr-07 | absolutely. I can use the new dr44 case to make a 220 or 240 amp, but I prefer to retro fit an ad244. I can get higher amp diodes that way. Just email me tejcurrent@tejcurrent.com whenever you are ready and I can do whatever you like. I just tested a 240 2 days ago, and had no problem s getting 150-160 amps@ 600 engine rpms after an hour drive. |

Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 2679 Registered: Apr-07 | Also I give forum members here the lowest price possible on everything, any time. No one will buy anything from me here and 2 months later see a sale cheaper unless I'm selling used/traded stuff. I also have dual, triple, quad brackets in stock, and a 6 alt kit coming out in a few months- the custom machined drive pulley is killing me on that lol. |

Gold Member Username: Drant19DUB-C, TX Post Number: 2200 Registered: Aug-07 | Also, how much power do you think i can run with a 240a alt? lookin to go no more than 3krms Total with subs amp and front stage amp. |

Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 2683 Registered: Apr-07 | The rule of thumb is to have 1/2 your peak amp draw at idle- so 3kw means 300 amps so 150 at idle should be fine. You won't have perfect 14v all the time- like when you are actually getting into it, but even at comps you shouldn't have much voltage drop with good batteries. I like to say you wont have any drop - but I am conservative with my gains. You really should almost never see full pull from an amp- even on burps a 3000w amp will almost always rise from 1 ohm to at least 2 ohms. This means only 150 amps, but people crank things up until they see 3000w, even if the signal is clipped. Music is dynamic so you can't really figure this way, but it's a good guideline. Short answer- you should be fine. |

Gold Member Username: Drant19DUB-C, TX Post Number: 2201 Registered: Aug-07 | awesome man, i wont be really doing comps. ill be in the market for 15's that can handle 1000wrms and like a 4cubes @ 32 hz. the box i have for my truck is nice so i would like to keep it. it narrows down my selectioon but im sure i can fiind a great sql subwoofer that fits my needs. also, 2 sets of 6.5" comps in the front doors FTW |

Gold Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 2685 Registered: Apr-07 | I'm looking at doing 2 sets of comps in the door too. The problem I'm seeing is the tweeters, I could fit 2 6.5s and 1 tweeter in the factory door location, but not 2 full sets without it looking different than factory. I really want to keep the factory appearance if possible. Also I'm not big into doing my a-pillars, it may or may not sound better with them there but I like the visibility while driving and people can't see I have after market equipment to steal. I'll be 'glassing soon regardless. If you aren't fighting for every tenth on the meter 1 good alt should be plenty- looking forward to your build |
