The foremost reason would be the 30 amp capacity of the Bosch unit compared to the original 20-25 of the OEM model. 2) Price. A rebuilt Bosch/VW unit goes for about $60, (plus a core charge, if you don't have one to exchange). 3) Availability of parts. 4) Availability of repair facilities. 5) Cheap regulators. $10-35 vs. $45-115 Of course, the downside is that in order to get the thing to fit (right) you will have to do/have done some machining. Is it worth the effort? Heck, idunno'. I just enjoy a challenge once in a while.
