Have you inspected and cleaned all the connections and grounds? You might want to retest using a tester from one of your local auto parts stores see if there is a difference and also performing a load test.

As Disco Mike says, have the alternator checked on a test rig at the autoparts store. We have had Bosch re-manufactured alternators that were bad out of the box (actually--two in a row).
