ASAP - Need to know output of stock alternator on US spec Lancer
Doing some diagnostics on my audio system and trying to correct headlight dimming.
figuring that I am using a 1 farad 16v cap, It leads me to believe that the alternator is weak.
So if anyone knows the specs in amps on the alternator, let me know ASAP while I have the thing apart.

forget it - its 85 amps
I figure that my amps draw at least 70 amps when running at a decent volume - so add that to the rest of the electrical components (lights, heat, head unit, ect.) and that little bugger is at full capacity.
Time for an upgrade and an optima battery.
