G3 High Output Alternator

This may be covered somewhere else, but I was unable to find it in my search. Does anyone make a high output alternator for the 3G 3.5 Ltr Taco? With all the additional electrical going on with my build a high output alternator would be helpful. Thank you.

 

Have a read through this. There are other issues to consider.

I was just working on this, need to update shortly.

Yeah. That’s the information I was looking for. Thank you so much. I didn’t know where to start looking. I’ll go down this rabbit hole for a while. I was wondering, and I haven’t finished reading by any means, but does anyone make a secondary alternator system and would the 3.5 handle it? Just a thought.

 

Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, but there are lots of tuners who can change the settings of your current alternator to facilitate an AGM battery (raises the charge to about 14.5 volts). People have been doing it for years by now, and no complaints/issues that I've seen. Any of the KDMax tuners listed here can help you out: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/new-kdmax-performance-tune-by-paparee-and-twtaco.713699/.

 

The 3rd Gen ECU controls a lot with voltage, battery, alternator, etc and only a tune can change many of these parameters.

Perhaps some of the tuners @TermLimits in here could make use of this.

Dual alternator will need a tune to manage voltage. Especially if you’re running a single battery set up on it.

I’d save your money if you have a single AGM and just get a tune that accounts for the battery’s charging requirements.

If you do need two alternators, look into mounting a second battery. Otherwise you run the risk of having too high of a charge being applied. It won’t hurt with all accessories running, but day to day will shorten the life of a single battery.

 

Thanks Runner. A dual battery system is what I was referring to. I apologize if I didn't make that clear. Thanks to all that responded to my inquiry. I'm still chasing that rabbit hole, but I'm sure the answer is in there.
