We would just have to put in an external regulator, other than that thats all there is to it. For now, we have no other way to do 16v setups that *we're* comfortable with. We have some things in the works, just no dates on when we'll have them..

will i have to send it in to you guys ? or can you just ship(sell) me the regulator ?///

On this one, we normally would need to have the alt back, but I have some things on order to make it so you could do the install. The regulator has to be hard wired, and it's just not fun to do on those and the way we're going to be doing it will make it much, much friendlier to do.. Rob
