Hi guys.

Currently doing a ICE install in my car and just wanted to know what the amp on the alternator was?

Sticking another battery in the boot to power the amps..

Cars a 2004 2.0 TDI DSG with BKD engine.

Cheers :D
 
i think its usually on a sticker or a plate on the alternator.
 
You can also find out the amps by the vin number.

A quick search on Ekta will tell you what is fitted.
 
Thanks for the info guys - I'll take a look at the alt in the morning!

But if anyone has ETKA and would check, I'd really appreciate it and could PM you the vin to make it easier!

Cheers
