anyone care to guide to me to the right place upon getting a higher ampage alternator...
i don't have a system of any sort just your basic cd player and a jdm front end with HID... i been dealing with this issue for the pass 4 months when i decelerate with my foot firmly on the brake with all my accessory on at night my car would shut off immediately towards lower rpm...so i then went to Sears near by local Auto Center they performed a battery test inspection...battery results were 410 CCA, Starter Test cranking volts= 10.65 Charing Test load volts=13.86 no load volts=14.00 so i then was frustrated and went to local Acura of Steven Creek Blvd ... factory oem acura battery CCA showed 500 CCA now my car runs really good voltage gets low but doesn't stall out i know this due to my Apexi pen timer with voltage reading...first 3 days i was able to drive with my headlights on and what not....i stalled out again for the first again after a long day of driving when i went to turn the headlights on...i think my only alternative now is to get a custom built alternator...i heard ohio generator and powermaster sell them...any other thoughts upon this topic
thanks in advance

forgot to mention i have an ATI fluiddampner....and the alternator is completely stock i even replaced it thinking it was bad...
Is the pulley on the ATI you have smaller than the stock one? If it is than that is more than likely your problem.The alternator needs a minimum speed to start charging.
