Try to find someone local that rebuilds alternators and see if they can't beef it up a little. It won't put out anywhere near a high output, but better than nothing.

If i remember right the Alternator of the Toyota Corolla 2001 looks similar to the Corolla 2005, but i'm not so sure. In my case i've fitted an Alternator of Toyota Corolla 2001 American model to my Toyota Corolla 2001 Japanese style, i've mod the bracket to fit it. ------------- Shaking The Neighborhood

Or just buy a GM large case alternator, those are the mose popular high outputs, go pick one up at a juck yard and make it fit.
I have a large case high output Irragi alt in both of our honda's. The CRX was easy, the civic was a bit tricky but regarless not all that tough.

A 98 gmc jimmy with the v6 vortec motor already has a large case gm alternator. Its called marketing, almost every ford, gm, dodge ect ect V6 or v8 will accept a delco large style alternator normally with no modification but adding a few washers to get it snug.
Like I said if you can put a large case on a honda civic and crx with no more then a angle grinder and some washers.......well worth it, very inexpensive for the H.O when they are so common, and you can get larger amperage alts in the delco cases.
take a look at some pics of a delco v8 alt off ebay or anywhere on the net. you should be able to find phisical size too, then go look at yours, I bet you will be very surprised

Ok First of all thanks for all the replies gentlemen and thanks for those links Aruman, I am new to car audio so I dont know much heres what I have in my car: Boston Accoustics SL60 6.5 Components which are 160W RMS total, 400 peak ( 80W RMS per speaker) Boston Accoustics SX95 Coaxial's 6x9's which are 120W RMS total, 200 peak (60W RMS per speaker) I already bought the Eclipse EA4000 4channel amp which puts out 75W RMS per channel but I have not yet installed it because I dont know if my alternator will handle this amp plus the 1800W mono class D amp powering my 2 12 inch subs, my alternator puts out 80 amp and I have not yet upgraded the BIG 3 or the battery YET, Is there an equation I could use to figure this out? What type and brand of battery should I get? If I do need a Better alternator, how many amps should it be able to put out? ANY FEEDBACK AND HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED THANKS!

You could always sell the foreign cart and buy domestic (GM preferred  ) - then you should be able to find an alternator with little to no problem. ------------- VEHICLE: 2002 GMC Sonoma ZR2

Oh, no, you... DI-Nt!
Please don't tell me you bashed a Toyota for a Canadian built, Mexico sourced, Generic Motors product! We're gonna have a problem here, brother! LOL ------------- It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

I suggest getting the OEM one rebuilt a little stronger. You won't be finding any HO application alternators for the Corolla anytime soon.
