Should I?

[jdub]

Here is what my set up looks like:

Pioneer 700bt

Alpine type R 6.75"

Alpine type R 6x9

Alpine MRP F-550 to power speakers (90rmsx4)

Hifonics BXI 1608 Amp wired down to one ohm with gains set very conservatively (1600x1)

2 Rockford Fosgate 12 inch P3's

All running in a 1994 Acura Integra. Should I consider getting any electrical upgrades like a cap, or should this work off all the stock electrical with no problem?

i would think you would need to do some electrical upgrades....but dont use a cap. they only draw more power and dont really help that much. I would at least upgrade the big 3 wiring...if you still have problems like voltage drops and headlight dimming you may need a HO alternator or better/extra battery.

That. I had similar amps setup in a 95 Prelude and had dimming but after the big 3, no more dimming
