Alright, was not exactly sure where to post this. I'm looking for enough Amps for a HC Amplifier, so I'm posting it here. What Amps are our stock Alts making? Is there a rebuild kit for them or an after market alt that will fit on the 2.4 Cobalts? Thanks.

No body?

 

anybody?

 

the alt puts out 115 amps according to alldata but are tested at around 80 amps max. im also looking for a HO alternator for my 2.4 since im running a **** load of power to my JL amps so if ya find one, let me know and if i find one i will let you know.

 

Will do, and thanks. Yea im looking for like a 150ish Amp Alt.

 

Try this place... http://www.gostartech.com/ .....you will have to call or e-mail to see if they make em for the cobalt. My buddy and I have 200amp units in our trucks..they work and are trouble free after 6 yrs in his and 3 in mine.
post up if they do...I may get one for the car too.

 

Try a capacitor first. They are a must have for high power stereos. They really tighten up your bass and prevent your headlights from dimming when the bass hits! I have a 1.2 farad Stinger cap feeding my 1600 watt system and it kicks hard! The voltage hardly drops at all when the system is cranked. My cap has a built in voltmeter and it stays at 14volts or higher. Caps are also cheaper than alternators. As a rule of thumb, go with 1 farad of capacitance for each 1000-1500watts in your system. Good luck!
