I have a 2004 honda civic with ac and no other power options. Lordco said that it comes with a sock 70amp alternator. I have a 1200.1 + 300.4 amps. The mono amp will be only doing about 700-800rms to my subs because thats all they can take until i buy new subs. I have been asking around to upgrade the alternator and teamshadowspl has a kit that i can toss in the car. When i talked to a car electrical specialist he said that the computer controls the regulator on the alternator so i cant upgrade it. Is there a work around for this?

 

I have an 2003 and I would love to find an answer to this question. I found this thread here, but it is far from helpful or definitive.

What are some stats on the kit from teamshadowspl?

 

he had a 180amp for i think 450. i really dont need that much, i would like maybe a 100amp alt to power my system, i guess i will make due with the stock 70amp alt

Check out Excessive Amperage too, they gave me a good quote on a 180amp alternator.


But I would like to get a definitive answer with regards to the Honda's voltage regulator before I spend that kind of money.

 

i just wrote teamshadowspl in regards to that issue, i will let you know what they say.
