"Internally regulated" and "One wire" are not the same thing, though one wire
is internally regulated.
Most would not consider one wire to be an up-grade. You can't use the dash "light" in the first place..and if by chance it would fail you on the road somewhere, a "normal" 3-wire internally regulated alternator is available at any autoparts store. Cost-wise the one wire is also more expensive w/o any performance advantage. They will keep a battery charged enough to start the engine, but they don't boost the voltage while running like a 3-wire alternator does.
