Anyone using a high output alternator for the stereo system. Did you have any problems with mounting or blowing fuses or any other problems.
I am looking at buying a 180 or 200 amp Iraggi Alternator.

If You have a high output alternator list what brand and how many amps.


Thanks

Thankls I have also used irragi alts before and can say they are great.
Was just asking if anyone had a high output Alt installed to see if they had any problems.

Is there anywhere aside from E-bay you can pick up iraggi alternators? Do they have a webpage or contact info?

Thanks

Sorry to resurrect this thread...Iraggi appears to operate mainly through eBay and I don't see that they offer an alt for 8's.

I was able to find Iraggi's email he responded that he does built RX8 alternators new :) picking up a 220 amp one next week.

picking up? so that means this guy is FL? could you post his web address or e-mail? i'd be interested in getting a higher output alternator for the 8 somewhere down the road, but i'm very interested in getting a high output unit for the 7 really soon.

I was able to find Iraggi's email he responded that he does built RX8 alternators new :) picking up a 220 amp one next week.What was the final cost? What is idle output? I too live in Florida and would be interested for the right price.

Sorry for the confusion I don't believe that he is located in Florida. I plan on having it shipped to me below is the exact email he sent me.

We build new.
180 $419
200 $439
220 $459

Thanks, Dom

Ouch. Still too rich for my blood. I have boughten from Dom in the past and didn't spend THAT much..... I can't see the 8 alternator being that much more involved/expensive than most.

Still, I might consider it. I have a strong urge to run my MMATS D300HC at 2ohm into an IDMAX 12". My last car audio install was...hell probably 4 years ago and even then I only ran the MMATS amp at 4ohm because I never managed to shoehorn two 15's into the back of my Monte Carlo (I DO NOT miss that fricking boat).

I guess I'll bookmark this thread and email him next year when I pull the 8 out of storage. Hopefully his prices go down. The issue is probably that he can't fit one of his standard alts into our application and has to 1-off each RX-8 alt he makes.

E: At that price, it makes absolutely no sense to go with anything other than the 220 amp unit - after 180amps, you pay $1 per amp extra.

E2: Also, this is a decent price if you compare to "group buy" pricing in this thread. (http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=96107)
