Do the big 3 first. It's a potential fix to your problem without spending a lot of money.

If that doesn't do the trick, run through a quick checklist of your symptoms. Is your voltage dropping consistently, or is it just a slight flicker on the big hits?

I have a class D amp pulling 1100 rms. 3 90amp fuses in the side. My alt is like 90 or 95 amps. So I need to do the big three.

I had a cap in my truck. Only because I had it laying around the house and got tired of looking at it. But I could tell it was straining the electrical system even more.

Caps are a temperary bandage...thats the problem with them, I HIGHLY dont recommend them for a perm. install wich they usually end up being since people are lazy an dont like taking an installing things lol. Yes there not COMPLETELY useless, but temp. bandage untill proper electrical upgrades can be made.

Or permanent band-aid when "proper" electrical upgrades simply can't keep up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
