I wish I had know that sooner. About a 1,000 miles before it died, the alt. went out and I just spent $125.00 on a stock remani and it is rated at 45amps. WTF

What saturn atl is rated at 100 amps?

They aren't 100, 96ish I think is what my paperwork said.

That was a really good article. Thank you for that aero. DSM alternator are so under powered it's ridiculous. I have a tiny little 200 watt amp and I'm always getting an intermittent MIL. P1500 generator terminal malfunction.

I used a 180sx alternator on my evo 2, fit in pretty well no major problems, was rated at 95 amps i believe, and was dirt cheap, i know you guys don't get 180's but im sure any alternator on an sr20 would have similar fitment. Just another option.
