[QUOTE="audiobahnuser18, post: 4259242, member: 564219"] Ok first off man since i can tell your new first off welcome to the forums here let me help you out man. Don't run a capacitor you'll learn why from reading around on here and other's telling you. Mostly reason because it just adds to your electrical system dragging it down add a 2nd battery don't worry about the cap. But here's how you add a 2nd battery man. Go 1/0awg wire if you can Run a pos. wire (make sure u fuse it , try to put the fuse closest to the 2nd battery as possible) then take your power wire going into your distro block cut is put the fuse inbetween it run that wire to pos also. So you now have a total of 2 wires on that pos. side. Next take another wire and ground your 2nd battery such as take that wire put a wire terminal on the end of it whichever will fit for the wire awg that you are using make sure u sand the metal that you are grounding to , so that you get a good solid ground.and there you go you have your 2nd battery. I know your probably gonna ask why the 2nd wire from distro it helps your amps so that your lights do not dim also adding voltage for your amps. [/QUOTE]
