Not sure what the Mopar external V regulator setpoint is.
at 2K rpm which is what my van runs at ~65mph, It has no issues making 70+ amps and no issues with temperature. It is Idle speed where the issues arise both from heat, and too few rpm to make enough juice to maintain voltage.
Wait for MexWanderer to chime in regarding the mopar VR in that Kit.
If you have wiring skills you can rig up most any external VR that can handle 8 amps of field current.
The 'trick the ecm' unit is just a 10Ohm resistor. I spent over 30$ for this 3 dollar part, so learn from my waste of money.
You do not have to rig up an external potentiometer on the transpo540HD like I did, YOu can just adjust it to 14.4v and call it macaroni.
