[QUOTE="adam71, post: 409176, member: 549079"] I've been to many competitions and MOST of the SQ vehicles have capacitors. The SPL vehicles don't use them at all because they use multiple batteries and discharge it all at once for their burps. A capacitor would just be stupid in that case. [I]Quted by Tommyk90[/I] Now, you add a capacitor(essentially a small battery) and when the bass hits, it drains out, and needs to be refilled, causing another load on the alternator and essentially defeating it's purpose. Actually its quite a bit different than a battery. A capacitor can discharge and recharge almost instantaneously where as a battery takes much longer. But hey, to each his own. This is a debate will go on forever and I'll use capacitors because as far as I'm concerned they make a difference in my system no matter what anyone says. Adam [/QUOTE]
