I'd rather have the eBay alt over the Iraggi from what I've read & heard about them. contact excessive amperage alternates as well, he makes some nice alts.

I have a mechman 150 amp on my 96 4runner.

I would have gone with a 240 but did not want belt slip.

Keep in mind that there are no options for drive pulley replacements since all three belts are driven off the crankshaft pulley.

With only three ribs, anything higher than 150 will slip a lot.

My 150 slips if my car sits about a week. I can tighten it up more, but it is already pretty tight.

Charging 6 batteries with a 150 will put a lot of strain on the alt.

What motor? I have a 270xp from DC on my Tacoma and its a beast alt. Kept up with 11k

Was charging 7 3100s just fine

Sorry I wasn't following this post

I have a 5vz

You have any slip issues with the 270?

no belt issues

You can get a nice Mechman for about the $500 mark.

You would just need to know the year make/ model and engine size and that would determine which size alt they have that can fit.

Can be 200A- 270A depending.

That's new to me,I just know what I've read before on SMD,facebook,other audio forums and google. Maybe they are making some good alts now but apparently weren't before? Either way I'm not worried about it,I'm using a 300 amp EA alt and very pleased,plus he's only 30 min away from so if I have a problem with mine it's simple to get fixed.

I just took Dc power 270xp off my '99 4runner and want to get it recase for my f350. Its very powerful alt. It keeps in 13s while pulling about 450amps of current draw.

Pm me if you want it though.
