I suspect your alt is just spinning too slow to make more than 13v, the regulator's not limiting it's output, there just isn't enough of it.
The supercap won't make a difference either, I just tested a 350uf bank on my Jeep, the total charge capacity is around 0.2Ah, your battery is probably around 100Ah.
