@mylows10 ; can sell you a Mike Singer alt, very high quality and power, and extremely durable. The higher voltage is done by using a voltage regulator, but unless you truly know about everything you're doing I wouldn't suggest playing with them. If done incorrectly you can really mess up your car's electronics.
