[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 16033410, member: 35549"] Usually when the alternator is cold it charges better. That was the issue I had with my last alternator. It would charge fine at first start up. Then slowly drop as everything warmed up. But yeah, cold air means more power which ups the load on everything else to keep up. Since you're not making a street brawler out of the car I would look into having it rebuilt locally. A lot of shops can up the amperage output as well. I imagine just going up to a 130amp would make a difference. [/QUOTE]
