it is either 70 or 80 amps, i installed a high power alt, that brings me up to 135, no dimming of my lights now, and i also put a yellow top optima, you will need these upgrades for that much stuff, also do the big three and ground wires, all good sound mods, good luck. My engine is a d16y8, i'm putting in a b18c soon, so i may have a high power alt with low usage available cause it wont fit my b18c engine, lemme know if you want one, getting my swap in a week or two then it'll be up for sale, peace, Jason

i'l prolly be looking to get about 150 for it once my swap is up and running cuz it most likely wont fit in it. I paid about 250-280 and its only a few months old 4, its the newest thing under my hood. It cranks alot of amps 135 plenty for my 1000 watt amp running 2 Infinty 12's, my lights used to dim at about 600watts powering 2 10' pioneers. Now i dont have any electrical issues, i've also done the big 3, and added an optima at the same time. Peace, i guess i'll be advertising it when i have it in hand next coupla weeks, having trouble finding the time to get my car to my swap shop ( 100 miles away). But when i do lookout for my civic gsr (b18c) with the custom kteller exhaust. Then after that i'm gonna supercharge for some reliable FI. Well, peace!
