Possible power loss

ok so i sit here and ponder all about the new things i can do to my car...its endless i know.

I have a question in regards to actual electrical power. as far as i know i have the stock pullies and a stock alternator on the car. I have a brand new battery and everything is nice and tidy under the hood. whenever i leave the car to idle or come to a stop light what not the volts seem to really drop off on the guage and it is also noticeable in the sound of the car, the lights, and the fuel pump. the alternator seems to put out the proper voltage when i check it with a volt meter. what could the problem be? i am sure this is affecting my performance in one way or another.


Also has anyone converted over to the MSD coil packs on an N/A motor and noticed any difference?
