Alternator?

I have a quick question about my alternator.I have a 99 Camry V6 that I want to add a couple items to.Each item draws about 65 amps each so combined about 130 amps while the alternator creates only 90 amps.To me it seems like I need a better alternator, but is their something im missing? I really don't want to spend the extra money if I really don't have to.

Idk what your adding but 130 amps is ridiculous. You would have to run a dual alternator setup forsure to get that much additional juice.

I'm guessing your talking about stereo amps. If so they won't draw that many amps all the time. That's normally a max amperage. So like when bass hit's it's hardest at full volume. That one amp will draw 65 amps to do so. Just get a good battery. And when your alternator goes then look into your options. I think I've seen that the Highlander alternator fits and is more amps. But I'm not 100% sure.

I think the Rav 4 alt is another option but do a search. You should be able to find what you're looking for.
