[QUOTE="Savant, post: 144503, member: 546108"] Different amps draw different current for the same output... so telling you how much you draw at 1640 watts can't be done (not accurately).. Cost is relative to your car... try mralternator.com, see what they want for various alternators for your car (if they have some).. Otherwise I've not really seen prices on other sites.. I'd guess between ~$150 - ~$300 (for my truck, it's $225 for a 200 amp alternator, which I will now have to get [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] ) For brand, mralternator.com is one I've heard mentioned here.. ohiogenerator.com is another.. there was a 3rd, but I don't recall it at the moment.. Another option might be to have your current alternator re-wound (any alternator shop in your town should be able to do it).. not sure of the cost, you would have to ask the shop..
