Theoretical vehicle Voltage regulator manipulation, update

My Alternator's voltage regulator in inside my Engine computer. I am not always happy with the maximum voltage it chooses to allow. My Field wires, One sees Z1 voltage( mopar) basically 13.7 to ...

There you go. Looks like a good design and easy to build. Use a standard TO3 heatsink, or contact the designer.

Still need to know the resistor value to fool the emc. The resistor simulates the field load.

This design just looks at battery voltage and activates alternator when voltage is low. As mentioned earlier, you can use existing regulator and lower input battery voltage (using diode or pot) and get similar results.
