#138070 Yeah totally dont use a capacitor... They are just a band aid. If you want more power right away just Run a second battery with a inline battery isolator. Or just retro fit a Gm 300 amp alternator on your Car.... I did.

(the bigger the ground the better, so run 4 gauge



If your running 8 gauge to the amp just run a 8 gauge ground. if your carrying 8 gauge in your only sending 8 gauge out buying 4 gauge for a ground is a waste of money just do 4 gauge all around its good for pulling about 80 amps of current.
