Looking for an alternator

[Techydrone]

Looking for an alternator for my 04 Kia Sorento with a 3.5 L v6. Singer has said no. Mechman said no. And a few others. Do I have any options here. Looking to do a build in a few months behind the second row. Two psi platform 3 15s on about 7k watts. Thinking a lanzar 7k or two taramp 3ks. With a beauty wall with Rockford fosgate mids an highs in that. And the rest will probably be Rockford as well. As well as Two kinetic batteries or xs (haven't decided yet) topped off with more runs of skyhigh 0 gauge wire. on a side note. What's y'all's opinion on these amps

(Full options list)

Js ultimate.. 240amp $359 300amps $459 with custom casing and hairpin

Singer.. 240 amp 537$ with lifetime warranty. Stock casing

CES (consumer electric services).. 240 amp 440$

Irragi.. 320 amp 649$ with Lifetime Warranty, Trade In Program, Warranty Transfer, Your choice of any two Standard or Custom Colors, and Shipping Reimbursement on Warranty Services.

Thanks to everyone for helping building this list. Js is one I really like for the price. They all have benefits and disadvantages though.

This is a very good question. Maybe parts are more expensive..? Could be wrong but just a stab at it. More costly to build? Who knows. But...if he keeps impressing people from around the world, those other guys should be worried. Charge whatever they want, no set pricing regulation, because they can...maybe due to demand.
Absolutely no reason a 270 amperage alt should cost 700 bucks.

Thats for sure ! I talked to him (CES) and seems very knowledgeable and they seem to use the same quality parts if not better ? I am thinking there are a Electric service company that builds alts and dc motors,starters for industry and agriculture and been around awhile and build stuff that makes our stuff look small. Lifetime waranty with 6 months no questions replacements. I felt good enough to order two 320 hairpins with billit cases and ground studs and powder coating. Time will tell how they do ?

The dad started ces as a electrical component company.
Patrick took it over and continues the same but adding on alternators.

Hes alright as far as quality, has had issues time to time, but is always willing to fix them.
He also makes custom alt brackets via facebook.

I seen a bench test he did with his 300s. Stayed above 210 at idle and at 310 reved up. Very interesting

I had one of his and it did fine and lasted a couple years. Communication with him was slow and frustrating but may have gotten better by now ?

I agree on the communication. Same issues. But people can be busy I guess

I agree but it was more like I ask two or three questions and two or three hours later he would kinda answer one in as short of a way possible. I know hes probably really busy but dont you think answering three separate questions would take longer than all three at once ? That would definitely effect me ever buying there again but it was cheap $$ I guess you have to pay for customer service lol !
