Got my new Alternator and hopefully the last one!

[Carlos c]

After 2 stock alternators and (1 aftermarket - probably my fault for jumping a very low V and old Optima battery)
I decided to do some research on a high end replacement and came across this 270amp alternator.

Looks to be of very high quality, shit it better be because it wasnt cheap. $639 + $100 for extended 5year warranty.
This thing should keep everything running very stable especially at WOT as the coil packs and Fuel pumps need it most.

I have the same one and it's worked well for 2+ years. Very high quality stuff.

keep the battery charged and shouldn't have any issues

Is it plug n play or does it require a larger cable?

Should require a secondary cable due to the increased amperage.

Yes, I'm doing a 0 to 2 guage cable and also requires a larger ring terminal.

Cool! I saw your post somewhere else on this and helped with my decision.

Exactly, think I screwed the last Alternator up by jumping a low Optima.

A PA alt. with a BPS pulley and a good battery should be good enough but this alternator seems to be better.
More Amps, efficient, and can withstand more heat.
