If you only need a little more power, the Sienna and Highlander 100A and 130A, are a direct bolt on.

i seen about that, but my car is power hungry. and that won't do. do you know what are the causes of no harness to the alt?

You'll have the battery light on the dashboard on for sure. I'm pretty sure you have to have it hooked up. I'm not sure exactly what the other wires on it do.

There should be places that have bolt on HO Alternators for the car. I need to talk to a couple Audio friends that have done it.

I think at one point he placed #1 in the state, or something liek that, for SPL is it? I'm not much into Audio so I don;t know the termanology well.
