[Alt for 03 Mazda???]

So how will that affect my engine? I assume THe more power and Alt outputs the more HP it requires? I've also heard the HO alts increse engine performace via ignition.

bigger alts are harder to spin while under load, so yeah you'll probably notice some engine "sluggishness" while playing music full tilt.

although i don' see how a HO alt will increase performance. if anything it'll degrade performance, slightly. they output barely higher voltage over stock (in most cases).

Yeah that makes sense. So another question is, if I have and Ho alt, do I need to upgrade my battery? Or will the stock battery be fine?

We build a unit for your car, I ship Mazda units all the time. Our 220a unit is available as a bolt-in kit for your application and they actually produce over 250a.

Mechman sells alt for that car. The biggest you can get is a 220. That's the one I have. Very good alt.

Okay, well i found one from Singer Alternators that im going to get. However...knowing that the engine in a protege isnt doesnt have the most horsepower in the world, do yu fins that its a bit more sluggish with an HO alternator?

Considering this is a MAZDA and not a MAXDA, i'll fix the title for you....

Thanks, didnt see that.

Okay, so I'm dumbstruck at the fact that I can't find any place online that sells HO alternators for my car (2003 Mazda Protege 5 - 2.0L) Does anybody know where I can find one...maybe I'm just not looking in the right place. Also - silly question, but do I need a big 3 upgrade with an HO alt and battery?...
