    I differ a little with the above statement.

    Original no. of turns on a 8 pole Xtreme/Unicorn stator is nearly 66/pole. And I have rewinded 45 turns/pole using 18 gauge wire and my Idle(exactly 1000RPM) voltage is 12.2V. And I get 14 Volts at 1500RPM only.
    Max AC voltage from stator is 77 Volts.
    but from my experience with pulsar is that 10 volts with 18 gauge wire @ 1000 rpm and that too 45-46 turns per pole and i got 14 volts @ 2000rpm.
    I think Xtreme/Unicorn magnet must be more powerful..

    since m planning to install hid along with alot of additional LED lights i guess i should go for 18 gauge wire to supply the more current requirement

    Yes you should go for 7 amps battery as 4 amps battery may create problem at start up of hid as hid takes too much amps at start up but if you will be purchasing the new battery than first use the 4 amp battery life than buy new one.
    thanks pal.

    More voltage would be of no use it will be wasted by the shunting action of rr.

    19 gauge wire will be good for 8 or 6 poles stator coil. if winded with 18 gauge wire than voltage would be less due to less no. of turns per pole

    Note: here i am just giving example, exact wire gauge would only be told depending upon stator core area size where wire would be winded. like TVS Apache RTR and Bajaj pulsar (150/180 ug4) has 8 pole stator but apache' s coil core area size is more than that of pulsar.

    more poles means more number of turns which is proportional to the volts generated and hence more watts produced

    Do i need to upgrade my 12V 4Ah battery to a 12V 9Ah battery for installing hids. Also will I have to change any electrical wiring to support the 9Ah battery??

    8 poles. Unicorn and Xtreme electricals are ditto.
    you haevn't started converting your xtreme to full dc?
