3G Installation Failure: The Death of a Turbo Coupe September 01, 2007, 04:28:50 PM I only have one question before I put everything back together:There are two Wires ringed onto the Starter Solenoid stud where the Main Alternator Output wire would sit. Do I need to upgrade these wires or can they handle the power? Mind you, my Amp gauge has never, and will never work. Quote Selected
3G Installation Failure: The Death of a Turbo Coupe Reply #1 – September 01, 2007, 04:50:49 PM I got my swapped last month you should not need to upgrade them at all unless you just want to and you got some other wire in mind to make it better. With the BBK underdrive pulleys mine reads 13.8 to 14.0 when i turn on my car. I think your good to go but wait and see if anyone else has something to say about it. Quote Selected
