[QUOTE="ilikeradios, post: 8569163, member: 635997"] OP loves to waste his money. As I pointed out to him already the Honda has an ELD that turns the alternator on and off depending on demand. That motor is too small for a 240 amp alt. OP has a very low power system. All he needed to do is bypass the ELD in his car. Now what I would recommend (although you never take advice) is to sell that alternator to someone else and put your stock one back on and bypass the ELD. Second to that I would change the pulley on the new alternator to a larger one which will be less strain on the tiny motor in that car. You do not need these upgrades for 600 watts. [/QUOTE]
