Did you ever test yor 160 amp alt to see if it really can put out that number? How is the unit holding up so far?

@happynole @paradyme

How are the 160amp alternators holding up after all this time? I am tired of the high draw of power from A/C and amplifier. So, looking for a bit more power from my alternator. Already upgraded power and grounds, but the P11 demands a lot.

How is the alternator at idle?

For anyone who upgraded their alternator, did you upgrade the main fuse to a higher amperage fuse?
