On a/c delete I already removed the belt. But that was before the scan gauge and really even tracking mileage. I run hot (my person my body heat what ever you wanna call it) so even having the option to use a/c it would be on all the time. I typically only turn my heater to about the 1/3 mark when its below 40°f. In the summer yes its a bear for me without it but luckly Im in the mountains during peak hewt hours so it stays under 100°f most the time.
Solar panel idea. I have actually thought if this before. Yes my 8'4" by 72" wide camper has room for about 500watts worth of panels. Which in a high end lanel is about 20Amps. My system usually only draws about 25amps max. So yes it would eat up alot of the load from my alternator. Buy high end oanels are still about $3US a watt, so about 750 bucks plus a charge controller which for a decent one can run about $200US. Almost $1000US to basically "delete" the alternator... I think it would take a decade to pay for it self, even at the rate I drive.
Stalking me... Its fine by me I dont mind. I appreciate the input.
On intake/exhaust I was thinking at the loads Im under constantly it would help a measureable amount. Ive seen my scangauge at 80% load or more quite a bit. Please understand my normal cargo load is 750-2000lbs. Average is about 1250lbs.
You really dont think a more free flowing exhaust that is about 3 1/2' shorter then stock would be beneficial?
