Default HELP! Problems with Saleen Supercharger install!

Once it idles for a short time and I start to give it a little gas in neutral the car give an error about the charging system is failing. The car then starts to power down slowing and the batter no longer gets charged. I bought an new alternator from ford and still got the same problem.

Any ideas?


Thanks

Did you remove the engine ground wire during the supercharger install?
