BOLTS INTO THE FACTORY LOCATION

161mm mount spacing, 55mm leg ID and a 17mm shaft, all matching the original, so no brackets or spacers

217A HOT, NOT JUST COLD

The honest working figure at 13.5V once up to temperature, rather than the cold bench rating alone

240A REPLACES 90A

Nearly triple the factory output, with the headroom a fridge, lights and a compressor actually need.

250A FUSED HARNESS INCLUDED

Cable sized to carry the full output, so it reaches the battery instead of heating up undersized factory wire

TALKS TO THE ECU

Internal LIN regulator communicates exactly as the factory alternator does, with no ECU changes or resistor tricks
