Mechman high output alternators · Authorized dealer
The first-generation RDX paired a turbocharged 2.3L four with all-wheel drive, and many owners now add a subwoofer, a dash cam or winter lighting on top of the factory electronics. An Acura RDX high output alternator from Mechman gives that turbo crossover the charging headroom to run it all, with 170, 240 and 320 amp choices for 2007-2012 models.
The Mechman units listed here all fit the 2007-2012 RDX with the 2.3L turbo engine, so the choice comes down to how much you plan to add. The 170 amp unit suits a modest amplifier and some LED accessories. The 240 amp step covers a full component system with a sub, and the 320 amp unit is the pick for a high-power audio install or several auxiliary loads running at once on cold winter mornings.
Turbocharged engines also run their cooling fans hard after a long climb or a summer traffic jam, so a stronger alternator keeps that demand from competing with your audio and accessories.
Each listing is one of the Mechman high output alternators designed to replace the factory alternator. Before ordering, enter your year and engine in the vehicle finder above the products to confirm the match.
An Acura RDX high output alternator pays off fully with charging wiring sized for it. Pair a higher-output unit with heavier cables from our amp wiring kits, and consider a fresh battery from our battery selection if yours is aging. For other Acura models, browse the Acura alternator collection.
