Maritime Car Audio- (2) 18" SSA ZCON D1

- American Bass 500.1

- 60 ft of 3/0

-480 Ah of battery

- (2) stock alternators (70 +90)

- Kenwood Excelon x-794, 4v preouts

car audio is just a LOT more complicated than "this amp does this power" or "this sub will be this loud". its like 2 + 2 = banana. (if that confuses you then you get the point) lol

The reason why it is cheap is because it is nothing more than a large case one wire GM alternator. All of their alternators are just "universal fit" and sometimes they include an adapter plug. You could get the same thing from just about any alternator company for less. BTW, they are full of $%it about it making full output at 1100 rpm, ESPECIALLY with the small crank pulley on an Acura.

I can't speak for all the alternator manufacturers, but in our case $500 gets you an alternator that is specially made to bolt in the stock location. I can tell you with great certainty, that that housing will not fit on an Acura application, without substantial modification due to it's extremely deep case depth- 6.25" from front to back.

You get what you pay for.

so then how much for a 250 amp alternator for my 1996 elantra wagon.
