alternator same in scion xb, and yaris???
can someone in the know, look up the part numbers for the scion xb, the yaris, and the echo, to see if the alternators are the same part number...
I have been looking for a HO alternator, and they make them for the scion's including the xb, which shares the same engine... thanks again |

Call the Parts dept of your local Toyota Dealer & ask them for the part numbers for each. That will tell you.
BTW, are you looking at the Iraggi one??

I've searched many car audio sites and they recommend staying away from Iraggi...
I have found 1 place but they want $600 for a 180amp alternator...its a rewind... |

Get a 2nd battery & a battery Isolator, you'll be fine.

the route i am taking so far, is a 0 guage wire from the battery to the trunk, splitting to 2 4 gauge wires to my amps... For now, i will probably use a 1 farad cap, but will upgrade to a high outpout alternator, and dual battery set up. Last edited by punch; 07-27-2007 at 09:37 PM. Reason: correction |

The problem you guys have at idle with dimming lights and weak batteries is because your OEM alternator does nothing at/near idle. Your alternator does not start charging until around 1200 rpm.
Your best bet might be to look for a reputable pulley builder. Such a company would be able to build you an Overdrive Alternator Pulley for your stock alternator. A properly built Overdrive Alternator Pulley would cause your OEM alternator to charge at a lower rpm (maybe 900rpm) and would save you time, hassle, and customization required to fit a different alternator. Good luck gang! |
