Car Battery sufficient for this setup?

[inVINCEable667 10+ year member]

I am going to be using a KICKER SX1250.1 feeding my single 15" Solo-Baric 1200RMS power at 1 ohm. I am also going to be using a 2 Chanel Phoenix Gold R2.5:2 amp feeding my two components 75RMS as 2ohms...

I was planning to use 0 gauge wire from my car battery to a distribution block, then to my 5 Farad Capacitor, then power my two amps off of that. I am wondering if my car is capable of powering these two amps using only the car battery.

And if it matters I am using a Pioneer DEH-P7800MP headunit that is powering my rear speakers..

Thanks for any input/help/advice.

It is a 1999 Jetta with a v6 engine... not sure about alternator size but I assume it isnt very big.
