definately double up on the cap size. A good rule of thumb is 1 farad for every 1000w. So with you at MINIMUM 3 farads. Hope this helps!

i think you need 4 more caps and get the ones with the flashing and glowing lights that sputter around and stuff remeber more lights +DBEEZ and put some kicker stickers on your car that makes it louder too mkay.
