My 2004 ar230 has about 5000 watts at peak of stereo and the stock charging system will not keep up. Anyone else have a similar problem? And is there a solution?

Re: Stator

a smaller stereo will also make you much more popular :)
also no offense but peak is meaningless..... what is the RMS rating of the system, and do you always play it 100% loud?

Re: Stator

Check your battery, and the charging system on whatever engine you have. I have no idea what a 2004 ar230, and I doubt if anyone else here does either.

EDIT: Just noticed this post is almost a month old, and the OP has not been back since posting the question.
