Mechman high output alternators · Authorized dealer
Tuned GTIs collect electrical extras quickly: upgraded fuel pumps, gauges, data loggers, brighter lighting and an audio system that has to keep pace. A Volkswagen GTI high output alternator from Mechman gives 2006-2014 cars with the 2.0L turbo the charging margin for that list, with a 370 amp unit for early years and a 400 amp billet unit for later ones.
Performance upgrades lean on the charging system in ways owners do not always expect. An auxiliary fuel pump, gauges and a cooling fan running in traffic after a spirited drive all need stable voltage to work properly. These Mechman high output alternators give a modified GTI that stability, with capacity left over for a sub in the hatch.
Track-day drivers also add cameras and data systems that must not cut out mid-session, while daily-driven GTIs pick up dash cams and LED lighting over time.
The 2006-2007 GTI with the 2.0L takes the 370 amp unit in a natural finish. The 2008-2014 GTI with the 2.0L takes the 400 amp billet unit in a machined finish, a nice detail under the hood of a show car. Confirm your year and engine in the vehicle finder above the products. The same pair also appears on the Volkswagen EOS and Volkswagen Beetle pages. Add cables from our amp wiring kits to your Volkswagen GTI high output alternator install, and see the Volkswagen alternators page for more.
