my auto teacher was telling me that when he was a kid he ran a switch to his alternator and so he would turn it off, i guess that made the magnets not work so his car was faster...would this be true? just a thought

 

I guess if you battery not charging is worth supposed horsepower, then go for it.

 

your battery will last for a 1/4 mile

 

I thought about that too and even did some reasearch. https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...ernator+switch Someone informed me that it won't work because you'll blow the voltage regulator or something like that. Don't know if he was just saying that or if he knew for sure.

 

try run your car w/o header nor intake manifold nor valve cover and fill up 10 gallons of piss into your gas tank.

 

well i guess it was worth a thought, it probably worked for old cars...but

 

your brilliance could light up the universe if it had to.



if your a 2.2 upgrade (or d/grade?) to a 2.3 and gain 5hp/5tq.lb

cheapest yet instant hp = nitrous

i encourage everyone to get it.

 

?

 

That's what I was thinking as I read this, he did it on an old probably carbureted car, with no computer. A comp wouldn't let this happen, your sensors would go nuts, starting with your battery and charging system lights, on to the popular check engine light. I don't know why you would want to do this anyway, I've lost my alternator, and once you drain that battery, your car is as good as a statue on he side of the road. So you can sit and stare at your bling bling while you're waitin for a cab or your parents to come get you, cuz your car won't be moving anywhere.
