Default high output alternator?

Anyone know where I can get one for an 05 V?

I'm getting ready to do a stereo and will need a better charging system for a large amp or two.

Thanks

Default

A friend here in the auto electric business says that it may be possible to switch out the internals (he called it a "guts swap") on the V alternator for something with a bit more amperage.

You will be limited though, as the V has a unique housing and he said that beyond a certain output point, the housings have different internal dimensions, making the "guts swap" impossible.
