Upping to a 250amp alternator is not that easy....the cars are configured to run off the one thats in there.... too big of an alternator will result in power drain because it will want more than the battery can give it....unless ur runnin a huge and I mean HUGE system theres no need to throw that big of an alternator on your car

True, there's no need to run THAT big of an alternator on your car unless you have a friggin' HUGE system, and most alternators that big are externally regulated, and wiring would have to be upgraded just as 03 said, but....but I disagree with your statement as far as creating a drain on the electrical. The Battery's sole purpose is to start the car, and to supply power when the motor is off. The alternator is a generator in a sense, and doesn't "drain" power from your battery no matter how big it is.
