Re: Gen V Swap Alternator

old thread, just adding information for others

My stock alternator settings did the same thing. Sometimes the gauge was 13 volts - ish.... others would be below 12 on the gauge... annoying.... then came across some info

HPTuners required

go to

System Tab / General

Fuel System Voltage Min

Set this to the desired Voltage output. In one of my swaps 2006 BMW x5, I have it set to 14v, and it outputs 13.6v. So tweak it as needed

Fuel System Delay : delays the alternator commanded on voltage for however long you set this delay to. I give it 10 seconds, think it was a factory value just so its not loading the engine right on startup.
