That's a basic capacitor. It'll make ur stereo better but wont fix ur problem. Follow the things ppl above this have said and ull be fine. The capacitor I have doesn't fix my dimming lights but that's just because that's not what they meant to do. If you fix this problem and don't need a capcitor then I suggest you avoid it till its needed. Here's a link to the cap I used, and there's a review telling about why they don't fix the power pull issue http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/p_18695_Rockford_Fosgate_RFC10HB.aspx

 

ok jack i read the link and thank you it sounds completely correct now i need to see if lucky 7 has what i need lets cross fingers here lol okok now the system install i orderd a nice set of subs and also a 1200w amp a 5 farad capacitor i know its overkill i have a 8 gauge wire going to my fuel pump from battery im going to replace it with a 4 gauge fused line and run the amp and fuel pump off it the question is since i have a 5 farad should i hook amp anf fuel pump to the capacitor or have the pump before it ? i mean would the more constant draw of my pump hurt it ? i know one farad is good for 1000w i cant imagine the pump using more then 1500w and the amps 1200w

 

schaft when they say yellowtop on those reviews do they mean optima yellow top batteries

 

Cap goes first in line

 

Yes

 

have you thought about installing a larger battery? i personally use optima yellow top. every body seems to like red tops but yellow tops have more cranking amps

 

i will definitly get a yellow top when i get to installing everything ive seen a few cases where a smaller battery has been installed in back im considering that as well but will look for that smaller alt pully first i think that is a dead on diagnosis

 

From what I remember reading, if you install more than 1 battery, both batteries need to be the same or else there will be discrepencies when charging power is sent to each unit from the alternator.

 

A bigger battery and upgraded cables should fix ur priblens if the alt belt if correct.
