Which alternator company?

[bumpinne0n 10+ year member]

I'm trying to find a high-ouput alt for a '03 Dodge Neon (non-turbo). I really don't want to have to change to a shorter (autozone/advance) belt, because I've had problems with them squeeking and eventually breaking. So far, I've been quoted:

$379 for 180 Amps, $399 for 200 Amps from Iraggi

$325 for 180 Amps from Excessive (quoted that back in November)

$354 for 200 Amps from Alternatorparts.com

Which company would you go with, or do you know any other companies that would have what I need? I'm planning on running at least 2400-2500 watts in the near future. Is there anyone with Neons on here that have bought HO alts for them? I'm also looking at a Kicker 1/0 wire kit on eBay. I've got some Stinger 4 gauge now and it was a pain in the *** to run through the firewall, through the grommett (sp?) with the hood release cable. Are there any other places that would be easier to put this 1/0 without drilling?

I've read both good and bad reviews about Excessive and Iraggi but I haven't found anything about alternatorparts.com. Anyone dealt with them?

I would recommend H-O Alternators. Rick is a very knowledgeable person and you never have problems with their alts.

I bought a HO alternator from knukonceptz and it works great.

Mean Green and Ohio Generator are some other HO alty companies.

both from my knowledge are very expensive. But very good at that, so you pay for what you get.
