Battery
#11
Point @ hand. Our old school Mini came with 4 factory fuse's and a wopping 31 amp alt. Now the 4 fuse's show how simple the car "was". The simple 31 amp alternator truly didn't keep up with the simple car even with proper wireing and a yellow top. I had the opertunity to upgraid the alternator to over 180amp. and all the power problems that were now didn't. I'm the first to say that 31 to 180+ was a bit much yet if I don't ask for the charge it don't . I get the same physical engine power as before and the millage hasn't suffered either.
Simply put. Over kill to a point. Here it can't hurt now can it?
