Default High output alternator

So I'm pretty sure my stock alternator is shot and I'm in the market for a high output replacement. Has anyone on here done this with an ecoboost, if so what brand and amp rating did you go with?

Interesting that no one has replied.
You having an ecoboost shouldn't matter. There are a few companies. Mechman, singer, iraggi.. Those aren't cheap. You'd be looking at 300+.

The only one I've found so far to be a direct replacement is DC and they go for 600-900 bucks! I'll look into the ones you mentioned, thanks

Have you had any issues with your stock alternator yet? Mine was holding a solid 14.2-.5v and now it won't maintain over 13v except when I'm braking it'll briefly go up to 14. It all started happening after I put in the new XS battery.
