Caps are most beneficial to a system when your car's electrical system is functioning properly- meaning lights not dimming- etc.

If you do not have that issue - then go for it. Caps take some of the strain off of the electrical system allowing a more balanced current flow throughout the car. These are expecially usefull for subwoofer amplifiers as they demand the most current.

However, if your car is allready struggling for power, then a cap will do little good.

take it easy,
