u mean the top ekzos manifold shield o wat? my buddies all running big turbine with aftermarket manifold(no shield)...they never got charging problem also :)

the shield should be quite far from alternator if not mistaken, i forgot

 

[mines998]

If the heat source is far from alternator not so bad but too near then will have problem. My exhaust beside my alternator it does really affect my charging but I not using EVO lar...he he...

 

[mines998]

If like this charging will affected by heat.

I'm planning to change to 90 amp alternator for my E2 engine. Is there any issue replacing 75 amp with 90 amp alternator?... i'm worried that i might burnt something...LOL

 

[mines998]

Higher amp won't burn anything if connection ok but higher voltage will.

i had the problem mainly because the car was driven under the heavy rain as our alternator located at very low part in our engine ...no doubt a small amount of water on the road will splash on it which cause its misfunction sometimes, this happened everytime when heavy rain happens especially when u see a small flood...i got mine changed the 4th times so far!

Its seem that this problem is quite familiar to RVR engine (my personal opinion)..root cause of this problem, still not found..no concrete solution for this problem too..hummm, "SUSAH KES"!!!

I think always spoilt part should be the white colour thing behind gua.. that should be voltage regulator?

 

[starwing11]

Sad to inform, my alternator had failed on me again on saturday night at MUAR... *^$%@#%&.... yesterday almost cannot get back to jb already, luckily got relatives fren at muar came to help, change a temporary 90amp alternator for me so that i can come back to jb.. and again the voltage regulator was burnt.. y? because the alternator was still underrated for my car, thus it cause the alternator to charge and charge and charge because the power consumption was too high for the alternator to cope.. i also dunno why.. anyway tomoro going to change my alternator to a bigger amp.. if it works, i'll update here... really got fedup already...

i bought a second hand alternator for european cars from chop shop.. now still under surgery to transplant into my car.. will update here once it's ok.. basically it's 0.5x bigger that my previous alternator in size and the amp is 140amp at 14V.. i have frens already been using that alternator for SPL setup in his car..so far no prob.. hopefully can be ready by tomorrow as yesterday already sent into operation theatre..
