Has anyone found or bought an upgraded high output alternator for the 2AZ motor???

if so, how much juice? where and cost??

I have a 220 ampIraggi Alternators
range was around $500.
Iraggi Alternators
121 Highland St, La Vergne, TN 37086-2940
(615) 287-7991

great thanks! any ideas on what the oem puts out? I read 80Amps somewhere?

There's probably some higher rated alt from a Tundra etc. that would have a winch that can be adapted.

the previous gen highlander should have one that fits
at least ive read that somewhere on the boards

Search the topic and you shall find my little grasshoppa

Ive searched and the highlander alt is for the v6 motor, I have the 2az four banger...

sooooo as far as I know, there is nothing else other than a
custom ordered one that will be a direct bolt on??

the highlander came in a 2az form as well
i would think they would have a higher powered one compared to our solara ones also?
just in case u didn't check

Iraggi has different amp alts for the 2az. It depends how much you willing to spend

I thought our gen 2 solaras were underpowered! to think that Toyota
threw the motor into a highlander too? geez.

thanks for the info everyone. Ill look into in highlander but I believe I will
go with the Iraggi alt instead.

I know that using a Capacitor, like a 1mf. It does take some strain off the alternator. The capacitor is like a battery itself. It stores then releases energy. Just don't get shocked. It hurts
