[QUOTE="Mash Jetta TDI, post: 283889, member: 540945"] Im having problems with my system, my head lights dim and the CD skips. I figured that it was because I didnt have enough juice running to the amp(which pulls 1500 watts). I added a 1 farad cap, but it still dims out and skips. If I add another cap, or switch to a 3 farad cap will it help out at all, or should i go the route of a 1200 watt battery under the hood or a better alternator? Also, I am having trouble with my subs bottoming out when i push them. Here's what im running...... 4 gauge amp kit 1 farad cap Box with 14"H x 6"W Ports on both side. MTX thunder 8100D amp 2 12" Alpine DVC subs at 2 ohms per voice coil (wire parallel) Blaupunkt san jose deck Blaupunkt CD changer If anyone could make any suggestions it would be a great help! Thanks Chris [/QUOTE]
