s-70 alternator upgrade S70

posted by  someone claiming to be RYDMOTO on  Fri May 27 10:07 CST 2011 [RELATED]

Does anybody know if I can swap out my Bosch 120 amp alternator with a higher output one from a S-80 that has the 5 cylinder engine? I have seen a 140 and 160 alternator is available.

I called Bosch and the tech said there will be issues with voltage and the regulator which according to him is ran by the ECU.

Any guidance would be appreciated.
