Since you're customizing by converting to 12v,

generator? Somebody on this list posted a 
conversion to the Mitsubishi alternator, this 
gives 12v 80amps.
Keep in mind that what this means is that the 
alternator will give you all the current that 
the car's system demands, up to 80 amps. Since 
the car normally only uses a fraction of 30 
amps, there is no advantage to this conversion 
unless you're intent on entertaining the whole 
neighborhood with your new sound system.
Any FLAPS that carries Bosch can get you a 
genuine Bosch rebuilt generator for a lot less 
money than what's been mentioned here. I have 
several good ones here, but they are a rather 
heavy item to ship.
OTOH, if you have a little electrical knowledge 
and are willing to study, you'll find that you 
can fix the generators yourself quickly, 
cheaply, and easily. I have a FAQ that covers 
most of this. The Bentley manual also covers 
much of it.
