Default Need some help with my 93 5.0

Here's my prob. My car was completely stock and ran perfect up until about a week ago when i pulled the smog pump and added a bbk c/a intake. The car is now showing a battery light and is only charging around 10 volts. Also, now when i floor it the car runs normal till about 5k and then just bogs down from there. I shift to the next gear, same thing. any help or suggestions is appreciated, thanks.

undo everything you did, and give away your tools.

Gonna need alot more info than you have provided. a CAI wold do nothing to cause these kinds of problems... you obviously screwed up somewhere, so why not go back and re-trace your steps... figure out where you went wrong, what you might have shorted out

Agreed with the guys above. The smog pump removal will not cause this. Sounds electrical in nature, but def need more info.

Um did you get a new belt of the proper length after the smog pump delete. Sounds like your belt is not tight enough to apply the proper tension to your alternator so it is not spinning at the right speed.
