Cap Question....

ok i plan on getting a HO alt for my 99 acura integ.. just dont quite have the money for it yet. i have all my electrical upgrades listed in my sig...

my question is, i got my hands on a brand new Stinger SHC6030 witch is a 30 farad cap, has 2 1/0ga input's and outputs.... i was about to install it but was thinking it would be pointless..?? would it??

right now with my stock alt i only drop down to 11.5 on long deeeeep bass note's...

usually im at 14.5 at normal volume, but when i crank it up it drops down to 12.5-11.5,... not good.....

i plan on replaceing the stinger batt in the rear with a kinetik hc2400 soon...

would the cap help.. or should i just rplace rear batt with a HC2400 & wait for the HO alt..??

A cap will not help with long, sustained notes.

ok this i know... basicly what im trying to say is... if you got this for free.... would you install this cap in you're car???

the only real reson i would install it is cause it has a voltage display and an amprage display

will not help the volt drops. get it, sell it, buy a voltmeter

i have a rockford volt meter hooked up.. tell's me the voltage at the front batt...
