I'm going to be running a 1500w rms - 3000w peak amp, I've already upgraded the battery and done 'the big 3' but I'm lacking power on my current system which is only about 2000w peak. Which alternators would fit a 1.4 8v arosa, I believe it has an akk engine but I can't check right now as I'm at work. I've heard the 180A passat alternator fits, but id rather someone confirmed it before I go blasting my money

Right guys, just thought i'd let you know i have fitted a 180A Valeo alternator from a passat. I would say it was relatively easy as i have no power steering A/C etc. so have the small bracket, was a straight fit apart from the tensioner bracket at the bottom which had to be ground to re-tension the new alternator. I ground out the bolt hole so it was forked which meant i could adjust the new alternator with an additional bolt. Sorry there are no pictures as it completely skipped my mind to do a guide, although if requested i could probably get some of the finished product, then all the waffle i've just wrote would probably make a bit more sense 110 more amps to play with. Juicy.
