I need to do SOMETHING. I'm tired of the dim lights at idle. I'm not sure I want to rewire the whole dang car, though. The jumper from the alternator to the starter doesn't bother me but...
Dim lights at idle is the whole reason why I came up with the Denso swap kit years ago. The Mopar alternator is very lazy at idle while the Denso cranks out a bunch of amps. Just the difference that 50 years of R&D makes I guess. Plus the Denso alternator is 5 lbs less weight to drag around and it seems to be a very reliable design. My wife has more than 200K miles on her 4Runner and the alternator is still going strong.
