im all booked this month cars good to go been driving it for a long time now just on a base tune tho lol

hey guys havent updated in a while...few thuings have changed ....after experiencing an eectrical fire that iv been trying to figure out...ybe you can shed some light on this for me as i am confused a bit...after the car sat for about three weeks cause i was abit scared to drive it after the fire lol, i took the oportunity yesterday to try and fix the problem...after trying to tighten the stupid bolt on the alti for the power wire i gave up..and wedges the wire so it wasnt so loose. after firing the car up i noticed my battery light was on and my volt gauge read 10 volts. i did notice once i gave he car gas and got to mid-higher rpm range the battery light woud go off for a split second and the vot guge would spike a bit. after this test i brought the car to a stop pooped the hood and felt the bolt and it was still cool to the touch (good thing). so i said of ets go for a drive, fter driving for about 10 minutes the battery light was still on and the volts were now around 8.5-9, so i pulled over turned the cr off and checked the wire agian and was still cool to the touch. so more driving for about 10 minutes i came to a turn and well i turned i hit a bump..well what do you no my battery light went off and my volts were now at 13 WOOHOO..got to my buddies house after driving the car for about 5 minutes on 13 volts and popped the hood and felt the bolt and it was SCORCHING HOT...burnt the crap out of my fingers....what would be cusing this bolt to get so hot all of a sudden????? please help me

when my subs weren't grounded properly the wire and the connectors were getting really really hot - I think it was resistance that caused that.

Once the subs were properly grounded there was no more problem. Keep in mind this was with 0 gauge wires and 1000watts.

0.02$

Those clutches should be good for a DD, and be able to handle to power you want.

Maybe check it?? From your post it sounds like the power wire isn't on tight (despite the bolt being tight?) If it's not getting a clean, solid connection then yeah the resistance that creates could make it hot.

But I'm no electrician so maybe wait until someone else chimes in?

Sounds like it might be broken inside the alternator?
