    Howdy ya'll,

    I'm looking for a High output alternator for my 2002 Tacoma 2.4L. I just put a new 900w RMS sound system.

    Any advice would help.

    Is the stock the 80 amp in yours? I think you could go up to a140 amp. I did that in mine but I have a 3.4L. Not sure what the differences would be.

    Soooooooooo, first let me say I'm not a mechanic and the 140A works great in mine. I would think it would work in yours. I'm sure more opinions will follow.

    Any way you could send me a link to the alternator you got? Just in case it does fit.
