Rev 3 turbo alternator

Post by gt4mayhem »

Quick question as I'm not to clued up on them but dose any one know what amp they are and what type of plug is on them? Can I use any rev of alternator from rev 3 upwards on a turbo or are there lots of different types.
Look forward to answers on this ;)

N/A alternators are phtsically smaller than Turbo alternators, so without changing the mounting bracket, they are not interchangeable.

Rev1/2 alternators use round 3 pin plug.

Rev3-5 alternators use oval 3 pin plug.

So altogether, there are 4 variations of MR2 alternator.
