Hello, As stated in the title, I need to upgrade my alternator to a high output version. My problem is that I know very little of my options or what size to get and where to get it.

I will provide as much info as I recall, if there is any variable information I am missing please ask and I will post.

My car 2004 Hyundai Tiburon

Current alt: Stock (90a?)

Amps: 3100watts +\-

Speakers/subs: 1750 watts +\-

Batteries: three (3) Kinetik 1400hc

Big 3 @ 0 AWG

Misc electronics in car-

1600w power inverter

Eclipse avn 52D 7" screen

Ps2/Wii interchangeable

Two (2) 12.2" visor screens

Two (2) 7" headrest screens

Various LED lights throughout inside and outside of car

Obviously, not everything is powered on all at once. However, during car shows the vast majority of them will be one simultaneously.

The highest output alternator I have found for my car (online) is @ 240amps, will this be sufficient or will I need more amperage?

Thanks.
