i had some time to kill today so i thought i'd hook up the battery tester to my car and see how many amps my stereo draws. with it cranked it averaged around 55 amps, peaked at 78 amps. i have been thinking about getting a high output alternator for a while now, but i think i am ready to take action, anyone know of a company with a good reputation for quality stuff? i was looking into getting a Stinger alternator, but they are a pretty expensive. anyone running a high output on their ride? ever since i upgraded my subs and am running my amp at 1ohm (600 watts) it dims the headlights even while on the gas, used to only do it at idle.

From what I have heard at SoundDomain.com forums, Dominick Iraggi makes good high-output alternators. I guess it's a hobby of his. His e-mail is dominick@tds.net

I am not sure of these ones, but in search of the cheapest high-output alternator, I came acrosss http://www.motorcityreman.com

I found this one for your car:

They have a 200 amp alternator that puts out 80/90 amps at normal idle speed {700/900 RPM}

I am not sure about them, but if you order from them, I could go down to their shop in Eastpointe, MI and give em' your thoughts!
