first upgrade your big 3. then buy the alternator. Ive never dealt with H/Os so I cant recommend anything. Im sure someone else will chime in with a suggestion soon though.

Iraggi alts is the only company I know right now that make a bolt on msall case alternator for smaller cars, but the prices are quite steep.

But for as much money as you have in your system the alternator would be one of the best investmensts made

Here is a link to his ebay store, it is best to contact him and request something for your specific model and car so you can garantee it will be bolt on
