HJ ,, Did you ever get that bigger alt figured out...

Post by RocK »

I was driving the CC the other day and it hit me... IF your still having trouble with the alt not putting out enough power would it be possible to put in a resistor that would "trick" the regulator to increase the voltage output at a slower speed like idle and have a switch to turn it of when at highway speeds or over idle.
