I'm not reading that.

 

alternator again...se how many volts it charges...where did you buy the alternator btw

 

All Version in orlando,Fl its a high performance 90 amp i race windows

 

really? good response . its a lot to read too i can understand why im sorry

 

well just check how many volts you are charging...btw how many amps do 200 si's require?

 

i think 80

 

yeah man i m preety sure its your alternator...but wut kinda high output alternator is 90 amps...the high outputs i have seen are like 150amps but yeah especially if you have some sound stuff going you are gonna need some more amps...

 

no sound stuff......... but if you cant understand it then iunno how to write it forget it then i guess ill have to take it to sumone

 

Could be a few things
Loose alternator belt. makes sure u get that SOB on there tight
Your altenator ground could be loose.
Poor batter connectors

 

does anyone know if this could be in my head ????

doughtful....
alt... check the volts, if any and go from there....

 

defective alt?

 

that is one damn long sentence

 

Alternator belt is the most likely candidate, although I wouldn't discount faulty installation completely. Recheck everything, especially the ground connection(s) and, if they're small and weak looking, don't be afraid to ground the alternator more than once.
