Has anyone added a diode to the voltage sensing wire to boost the alternator's output to around 14.6?

I cannot find any documentation on the web about this being done for either the 1st gen Tundra or Sequoia.

Thanks for your time.
 
I have done this on 80 series, and 5.7L tundra and LC200 but not on 4.6. I ordered the kit from Australia. Let me search the link and I will post it here.

100 series has a 4.7L motor and if fuse size is same as tundra then it should work. 100 series fuse size/type is 7.5A Mini blade for ALT fuse.

My Tundra is also using a 7.5 mini fuse for the Alt-S(Alternator-Sensing?) fuse.
If it is the same setup, then this would be the correct fuse to use.

I cannot imagine why it would not work, but I will email HKB and ask anyway.

Has anyone tried just upgrading the ground wires at the battery? I saw a decent gain on my 80 series when I replaced the ground wires with heavier ones from the battery to the body and the battery to the block.
