Removal of the alternator should not affect engine the engines' smoothness. You have a electric water pump right?

I am just trying to hook back up everything on my 3rd from doing a single turbo mod and the engine is not reving properly to full power. I must have missed something but I will like to know if the engine will run and operate normally wiht out hooking up the alternater.

It may run too rich at high rpms and possibly backfire without the alternator.
