so are these alternators just for big a$$ systems or do they give u some more ponies as well?
horsepower wise, they do the same thing as a stock alternator. i dont think theyll pull any more hp from the engine. also not sure if an under drive pulley would work on these. but yeah, our stock ones are good for MAYBE 80 amps. i believe my amps pulls 30 or 35 amps, so whatever is leftover has to power the headlights, heater, a/c, windows, moonroof, brakes, etc. if you have anything over 1000 watts in your stereo, you pretty much need a performance one so your car can still function and your battery doesnt die (as discussed before in this thread). the 170A alternator could be put in instead of a stock one so it doesnt have to work as hard, even on a stock electrical system.
