its more like 90A.... im not sure though. but im positive its not 160A, 160A is what i have because i got it rewound to 160 from a stock 90 or so alternator.

how much did that cost you to get it rewound? I might have to do that.

Thanks

Besides more power what benefits are there with rewinding the alternator?

130, but i had to send it to PA to get it done. so i bought an extra alternator to get rewound and then replaced it.

I run 1300 watts on a stock alternator with no cap and My car still works fine but my lights dim with the beat if I crank it up.

What kind of stereo are you getting? I run 700rms with a 1 farad cap and it seems to be working out fine. I know a guy with a crappy car that runs 2000rms with a 1 farad cap and he's doing just fine. Getting a new alternator/another battery is great if you are really serious about SPL, but other than that, I would say if it ain't broke dont fix it.
