Gold Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 1440 Registered: Aug-06 | i bought a 200 amp alt for my car and i am running one ab xd2000 and my headlights still dim really bad. i dont think that the alts do their rated current. i would guess mine does 160 amps at best. |

Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 6520 Registered: Feb-06 | m.s., just wondering but what size alt. you get from them and how much it'd cost? direct bolt on or did you have to modify any? |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8466 Registered: Jul-06 | I don't own one I have installed them for other people. They were all direct bolt on. The one time I did have an issue CS was great. " i bought a 200 amp alt for my car and i am running one ab xd2000 and my headlights still dim really bad. i dont think that the alts do their rated current. " Yeah, because how much your headlights dim is a great measure of how much current your alt puts out  Ever heard of this thing called battery capacity, you need both. And anything > than iraggi. Actually let me edit that. Anything > irragi or EA. |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8467 Registered: Jul-06 | I recommed DB Electrical over all though. But they only make alts for american made vehicles. Thats where mine is from, and they are the best quality product and best CS I have seen yet. |

Gold Member Username: Snowball123West Allis, WI United States Post Number: 1138 Registered: Oct-07 | yeah, but they don't make one for a Chevy S-10, 2.2 liter, only the 4 liter engines. I looked at them first already. |

Gold Member Username: ShortysetniesRock Vegas, NC US Post Number: 2803 Registered: Mar-06 | I've heard more things about DB being better than MCR but haven't heard bad things about MCR. Iraggi has horrible CS from what I've heard. Not as bad as Indo Audio was but still not very good. |

Gold Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 1445 Registered: Aug-06 | iraggi was the only company that would quote me for a 200+ amp alt for my car. |

Gold Member Username: HdubbTeam Revolution Post Number: 3892 Registered: Nov-04 | mechman alts come with a certificate stating what they are dynod at. i had an excessive amperage that was very good. but ive heard they are a hit and miss just like iraggi.  never dealt with mcr or db. i like my mechy. direct bolt. |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8478 Registered: Jul-06 | " lol cheaper than any others " I'll be VERY surprised if they beat DB's prices. |
