[QUOTE="evo2k3, post: 198116, member: 546246"] There is one application for caps in car audio, and one only. They deliver instant power to the amps when they try to draw more than the alternator/battery can send. Caps are quick charge/discharge batteries, nothing more. once the electrical system is made to keep up with the draw, then you can add caps to meat the instantanious needs of your amps, caps where never designed to relive stress on your electrical system or fix dimming lights, the reality is they put more stress on the electrical system. Thats the only use for them, i would never put one on a system to do antyhing other than what was mentioned. [/QUOTE]
