Default RE: caps

if your talking 5 then your going to use some serious power! You are going to need to get your alternator rebuilt to bigger standards, also id tack on another battery if you dont already have 2. Then get the caps. you can get brackets and all that pretty stuff at www.partsexpress.com you might just want to make your life a little bit easier by putting a battery in the back.

Jesus, 5 is way too much for anything you could possibly be running off your stock alternator.
