beefed it up added a smaller pully than an ho pully. etc. it will peak at 250 200 at idle since i need it at idle more than anything

flank steak or roast beef? You don't just "beef up" an alt in the same size case to gain more idle output. More top end output you get the less you'll have at idle. So he put on a smaller pulley to overdrive it. If the pulley is crazy small I'd avoid 5-6k engine rpm or it will burn up eventually....

DC should make a 270xp for your car, just ordered one for a CRv. No idea who that other company is....
I prefer Dekas over xs. 3-4 dekas with an HO alt would be fine for that amp....

what, and how many, dekas should i get?
