    Since I put my Steeda UDP's on, my alternator pulley has been squeeling like crazy. It makes the car sound like it has a S/C but it annoys the hell outta me! How can I fix it?

    without looking under the hood, are our alternator pulleys pressed on? you can try to remove it and reinstall it if so. otherwise, you may be looking at replacement.

    i know that when a large stereo system is installed it can sometimes cause squealing in the alternator. I am ssuming it could be causing some sort of unwanted change to the altenator ?

    Make sure your belt is in good alignment. Might be time for a new belt, if the pullies are lined up. Contact Steeda. They'll get you taken care of.
