[QUOTE="bgowdy, post: 8232422, member: 632121"] Battery over Cap. A really is pointless in a everyday application, it in turn puts more strain on your charging system acting pretty much like a extra load on it the alt. Caps are designed to fully discharge them selves and then HAVE be recharged. A 2nd batt will benifit you way more. They wont have to full discharge to keep up and they charge back up alot faster because they dont fully discharge themselves. So in short if your beating your system and the cap fully discharges, not only is the cap trying to recharge, but your system is still pulling current and so is the cap trying to recharge it self. So yea the better route is the battery in the rear. with that amp you should be able to do the big 3 and be ok i believe. But you can add the extra batt if needed. [/QUOTE]
