Hey, I'm thinking about buying a 200 AMP Alternator and have heard all the Pro's about them, but what are the Con's about them.
I have a stock 4.0 with a Altima Yellow Top Battery, 4 off road lights and a regular stereo system. I will be adding a winch somewhere down the road and a little nicer stereo.
I was told that a 200 Amp Alternator on a 4.0 with average power draw will kill the battery fast and may damage other electrical parts. I've only heard this from one person, but thought I would check with the experts.
I was aslo told by several people that the 4.0 runs better with a 200 amp alternator. True or False.
Thanks, Carl
