It won't be a noticeable difference... except maybe if your lights dimmed at night with the stereo on or when it drops to idle it won't anymore. The alternator won't put more load on the engine unless the power drawn from it is enough that the voltage drops and makes the voltage regulator put out more amperage. The actual alternator itself is not that much bigger in size/weight IIRC.

I barely have a stereo, run all LED/HID lights... so I don't have any need for a high amp alt. It was a 'what if' type of thing for me.
