the big 3 upgrade

Post by r12nuts »

hi
hope sum1 can help.
haveing problems with my sounds, have 2 amps, a kicker l7 running off 1 and 6x9s off the other.
also have a 2farad cap and a stinger spv44 battery under the hood.
b4 upgradeing my battery all my lights in the car would flicker really bad and if i was to turn the sound up to the max the woofer would cut of on heavy beats.
with the stinger however i can turn it up and it no longer cuts off but the flickering is still there although its not as bad as it was.
things i can do are
upgrade alternator (dont really wanna)
or upgrade the big 3 with 0 gauge.

has anyone done this and if u have, have u noticed a diffrnc?

many thanks

0 gauge I don't think will solve your problem. Since it will still be drawing more power. You could upgrade the capacitor, or put another battery in the boot with a split charge from the front battery just for powering the sound setup. If you can pick up a cheap alternator from a diesel car they are usually a lot more powerful!
