Default High output alternator, any recommendations?

I need a 200A high output alternator for my 95 GSR. Does anyone have any recommendations? Any particular alternator that is better than the rest? Any I should stay away from?

Here's the setup:

CVA-1005 multimedia in-dash TV (it's old but it's been used less than 40 hours)
Alpine rear flip down monitor (mounted behind sunroof)
Alpine 6-disk cd changer
Audiovox CD/DVD/MP3 player
3 6.5 inch monitors
Rockford Fosgate T2000BD amplifier
Rockford Fosgate T8004 amplifier
(2) Rockford Fosgate T115D4 15" subwoofers
(2) Rockford Fosgate T162S seperates
Rockford Fosgate T152S seperates
(2) Rockford Fosgate Digital capacitors (1 farad each)
Rockford Fosgate wiring




I appreciate any help you guys can give me.

I've read some good tings about Iraggi alternator's.

FCM on here likes to use Ohio generator alternator's.

Honestly, I'm not a big audio/video guy. My buddy who owns the shop that I did all my stereo install at recommended 1 cap per amp. Are these not big enough? Also the Rockford rep I talked to said that these should be fine for my setup.

BOTH are good choices. Also look into these companies:
http://Excessive Amperage
http://Powermaster Motorsports
http://H-O alternators
I would strongly look into an upgrade battery for up front (possibly a sencondary as well) both those RF amps can draw some SERIOUS current
when pushed. Look into Odysessy batteries (mfg for stinger and scosche efx),Powermaster,Kenetik.

It's hard to believe that you're not a big audio/video guy with a setup like that.

This is actually the first custom stereo system I've had in any of my cars. I've always had subwoofer boxes, but nothing like this. My friend actually came up with the layout of everything and I did the manual labor (woodwork, fiberglass, component install, etc.). He's done a ton of crazy systems.
