looking at fitting a better alternator that i can use on both my 998 and new 1220 engine. Whats the race type alternator like on road cars is it worth the cost?

    What is better.... more amps? For me the race type alternator is not required on a road car. in a Race car - low amps drawn, large pulley to reduce output, low weight and hopefully rugged but essentially doesn't get a lot of work. In a Road car- more miles, more output required ( lights sound ), no need for weight saving. The price on the competition types is not really justifying it for road use. Just my opinion
