Thanks Chris..
You are correct.
From the factory you have 110-135 amps of alternator. On a given day of driving you are probably only using 60-70 of those amps.
From here you turn on your seat heater and take 15ams more, then the passenger turns there seat heater on and take 15 more.
Then you turn on the rear defrost and take another 15amps and then radio takes another 15amps. All of a sudden you are using the entire output of the alternator. Then you turn on the headlights.. at this point you are using more than than the alternator can offer and you are drawing from the battery. (this is not good)
A high output alternator keeps your batteries from being drained during high use.
Keeps headlights from dimming during heavy use, (aftermarket stereo)
Mine just has more bells and whistles on it than most (adjustability and such)
Thanks again Chris!

They gave me 24k for the thing as it stood.. not too bad!

Well Frank at Revolution would have helped me with all of that work, but it really came down to wanting a new project as well as consolidating my garage down to just 1 car again.
Another big reason is that i have been approved for Lasik eye surgury and needed some cash to get that done. I have not been able to see with out thick glasses since the 3rd grade and I am an "exellent canidate"

Route 66 Race way
www.route66raceway.com
9AM
is 2 weeks off and we wanted to see every one come out to Route 66 Raceway for a test and tune day. I believe that doors open at 9 am and check in starts at 9:30 or 10am. For 35$ you can make as many runs as time permits, (usually 2 an hour unless it is really packed) Plus they have an off shoot area to practice launches and what not between runs.
Then afterwards heading over to the local Hooters Establishment for food, Drink and BS.
IF you have questions post them up or PM me. Ill keep everyone posted on weather and track conditions via this post come day of event.
Some things to remember...
If you run faster than a 13.99 you need a helmet ( I will bring 2)
You need Pants if you are driving, No shorts allowed (Had this happen)
Bring a Cooler for drinks, (no alcohol) Food stand is expensive.
Show up early, you will get more runs in early than later.
if sunny bring suntan lotion, there is no shade at this track.
all welcome, run what ya brung.
SEE YA THERE !!!!!
PS: Lets get some TBSS guys out as well!!!!!
UPDATE
People that will be there........

Thank for the info guys. why not just go 427 if I am spending the money on this kind of build up?

Yea,, what they said.. Also check or get another RCA and do a quick by pass from headunit to the amp so your can rule out a possible bad RCA issue.

I just got rid of my Baer Eradispeed upgrade and am looking to dive into a bigger brake set up. I know the Aluma Sports squeek and that is just not acceptable for me and spending 2k on brakes that squeek. Any one know or had experience with the New Willwood ones on Tbyrne?
