HELP! Trying to bypass the voltage regulator with HO Alternator
 

It is a higher ampere alternator and not higher voltage necessarily.
The manufacturer of the alternator should have instruction on how to hook it up
Then you need to know how the CRV is wired so as to get the proper inputs to the alternator.
The information you have provided is really not enough to help.
This may be why 15 places could not help you???

It isn't the voltage that gives you more power.

That is why the alternator is made for a nominal 12 volts system while putting out a higher amperage.

Of course, the alternator will put out a slightly higher voltage or the battery would never charge.



Your regular alternator has five wires for a smart charging system.

First is from the battery B

Second is the IG or ignition which is hot when on or start

This powers up the voltage regulator

Third is the L or alternator signal for warning "L"amp when the alternator fails

Fourth is the C or charge (rate) mode input to the ECM

Tells the ECM whether the charge mode is hi or low

Fifth is the FR or output from the ECM to the alternator

5 volts when no load and not charging

0 volts when heavy load and charging

Oscilloscope would usually show a square wave

But not at the extremes of charging or not charging

You will have to get a schematic of your charging system to identify wires

And what they do. Some seem to reverse the C and FR labels.

Would need to check with oscilloscope to verify?



The ELD (electrical load detector) has power and ground

And a third wire from the ECM. ELD pulls down or up the 5 volt reference.

Pulls down when higher load.



If the alternator was made for a CRV then electrically should take care of itself

If you wish to by pass the smart charging system then that would depend on you
