Im going to install both a Power Acoustik A1800DB and a Kicker L7 in my Nissan Titan pretty soon, and though I havent installed it yet, im pretty sure im going to need a capacitor and it will be for my system anyway. I dont really know anythink about caps, but how many farad cap should I be looking for? Also, what are the differences between the different caps? What are some better(CHEAP!) ones that I could get?

unless you have already upgraded your vehicles electrical system the cap may do more harm then good....For a cap is merely one more thing for your alternator to power along with the amp and such therefor creating more of a strain. I would suggest that you either take care of your Big 3 first and then if you still have major problems upgrade your alternator
