I install my JDM last week. ran fine for a few days, this morning I noticed a leak in coolant on top of the alternator. Had the hose replace.
While driving home it seems like the care is gasping for air. The car stop a million times while come to stop light. Check not vacuum leak. Check wire, new and cap too.
This is freaking me out.

Did you buy it from SR20Development?

I would bet the coolant on the alternator killed the alternator.

Yeah I bought from SR20 DEvelopment.
The alternator seems fine though. The amount of coolant would kill the alternator, but my car would stop, rather it choke or stumble. What do you think?

Call chris at SR20Development. I mean, you did spend a lot of money with him. Ask him what it could be...

well I have not call him yet.
Any way, I replace the radiator hose already. Still have the use alternator here.
The ignition/coil shock my mechanic, we replace it. The car dies last night, burn " fuse" replace already. I am very lost.
The car ran good awhile ago, but stumble slightly twice going home or just my damn imagination. Check the vacumm still good. Help
