Power output on a stock alternator (98 accord ex)

Anyone know what a stock alternator on a 98 Accord EX puts out? If so it'd be a big help. Thanks.

I have a boss 150amp alternator in my car, i think it cost 250 dollars i dont really remember i got it 2 years ago..... and depending on the alternator that you get..... DO NOT put a over sized light weight pulley at idle it will generate less then 15 amps no..... its not enough to keep the battery charged.....

but depending on how much power your going to run all you need is a cap
