I run a 200A. As long as you can keep it cool, you can run it. More amps doesn't hurt, it's over voltage that blows things up.

200 amp is alot of alt, but Tuff stuff is nice. We have used a ton of them over the years with good results, as with the DB stuff aswell. ( better watch the non sponsored links)
