[QUOTE="zane, post: 2287, member: 540617"] I would reccomend that you upgrade you alternator to one of a little higher output. Most of the time you can take your stock alternator in to a motor winding shop and have them rewind your alt for higher output.- That is by far the cheapest option. However you can purchase (depending upon application) a ready to go high output alternator from Stinger, Streetwires, Monster, etc. Getting a Cap is not your solution. Your car allready is straining to get the required voltage it needs to operate, so a cap would only be a band aid and would not attend to the problem. Repair a problem at its source, dont cover it up. An install is only as good as its weakest component. The amp is not your problem. Go for the alternator and you will be good to go. Take it easy, -zane [/QUOTE]
