Where can I find a alternator for my car...

hello, I need advice on where to find a hi amp alternator for my car. i have a 2002 honda civic 1.7L I have found one by alterstart, its a 170amp but i have only heard bad things about them, whining, and voltage spikes and if u get a splash of water on them, they stop working. i have heard of iraggi alternators, that they are quality alternators. i just dont know how to reach them... any advice

ohio generator

I just checked with them, they have a 140amp for 540.00 plus 30.00 for shipping i dont quite have that much to spend on a 140amp. i currently have a 70amp alt. i found a 90amp for 100.00. what do u think.

How big a amp?

i need a 140amp or higher...

I mean, the amp/amps you will use for subs?

I am going to run two crossfire vr1000ds

Try Db electrical that is where i got my 200amp from for 200.00

x2 product works fine, but customer service sucks!

ohio gen is the way to go. Gus is a great guy to deal with, actually everyone there is great.

That's what I have. You can find them on Ebay or go to www.db-starter-alternator.com

ohio gen is what i got. i never had a problem with the iraggis i used to own either.

the excessive amperage one i had had low output at idle.

they are expensive but you alwayz get what you pay for.

hard as hell to find ho for nissans
that db electrical didn't have one for nissan

i have a 200 amp alt made by bouch only used for 2 months for 150 plus shipping paid 350 worth 500

Hey thanks for posting that. They actually have one for my car.
Is they quality good on they're alts?

yes i have not had any problem out of mind I just ordered another so i can run two

Sounds like I'm buying a late x-mas present

i looked on the web site and they dont offer a alter for a 2004 jeep liberty

Would the altternator mess with the ECU in the car?
I had a rebuilt one in my older car and the votlage dropped drastically at idle

Does 20 amps make a significant difference?

id go with ohio gen. but theres also irragi,mechman, db electrical, h.o. , and im kinda surprised no one mentioned powermaster. ive heard good and bad about most of them but like i said id go with everyone else and do an ohio gen.

DB electrical is looking the best to me due to not having the chedda for the other brands. They make one thats 200 amp at 1200rpm and one thats 220amp at 1200rpm thats why I ask about 20 amps making a difference
