Website is down right now.
Never heard of them before.
If you want to order a high output alternator order a good quality one from Nate @ Excessive Amperage. He can even powder coat it for you selected colors. Not to mention you can get an overdrive pulley for even more power...

overdrive pulleys are great.
I'm pretty sure I got one of the prototype ones from excessive. Cargodz used to sell them...before going awal.

Do you have a huge audio system that needs the extra charging capacity?
You'll want to upgrade your alternator wiring to take full efect of a high-output generator.

I planned on upgrading the wiring....the power wire going from the alternator to the battery..... yes i have a system, its nothing outrageous. 600 watt system. I was told that the overdrive pulley isnt good if you have a system..... thoughts?

Send Nate an Email.
Give him a shot at your business. You wont regret it!
Never heard of that other places. Theres been a whole slew of fly-by-night start up over the last 5-8 years or so. Nates been doing this for some time...
Plus Nate is the only one in the indutry with the overdrive pulleys.
I added like 1.2 or 1.4 Volts by going to his pulley...

So i wont have problems if i get the overdrive pulley too and i have a system right? oh and do i need to get a new belt since its a smaller pulley? should i just get a new belt since its never been changed and i have over 100k?

The pulley is on the alt... More RPMs/smaller diameter.
Same length belt works fine.
100K on same belt? Yes replace that Billy. Get a goodyear gatorback and be done with it.

I asked the same question when i got my pulley. I've changed nothing, and it works great.
I jumped from 13.2 (sometimes idling down to 11.9) to 14.5 (idling down to 14.5  )
no problems at all, and its been maybe 2 years of running it now.

One could get that same result with the right regulator on the OEM alternator. When I use NAPA rebuilt alternators I get that voltage.

I already ordered the H.O. and i asked the guy if the overdrive will affect anything cause im running a 600 watt system and he said it would be fine.... i hope it will be  cause its probably already made or getting shipped....
