Alternator Upgrade


Recommended Posts

I have a 2016 Wakesetter LSV25 with a 440 Raptor Indmar motor.  The current alternator generates 95 amps.  I want to upgrade to 200 amps or more to supply my stereo and other draws (I know its alot, but I have many big draws).  If anyone has done this type of alternator upgrade, what alternators have you purchased to install in your boat(links to maker would be great) and what was the amps, what additional items did you install (larger wires, brackets etc) and a description of the installation process (and any photos) would be greatly appreciated.  I am aware of indmar's 140 alternator upgrade, but I want over 200 amps for max output with approximately 140 amps at idle.  Thanks for your help.  Daniel

Did you ever do this upgrade, looking for the same.  The easiest would be the 170amp upgrade directly from indmar, but I bet balmar could get something also in the same amp range, the price for both seems to be about the same.  I had and older monsoon in my 07 with a rewound alternator and had no problems with a big stereo, but this raptor 95amp with the same setup doesn't keep up.
