ya but the cap takes in more powe and stores it so it doesn't pull it alot at one time like when a big bass hits on the subs and i just used the pwoer and its gone and it takes in more the cap can store power to keep ur subs running even if u disconnect it form the battery

i call BS THEN........

and how does it take in more power??????

explain that then...... IT DOESNT...
if anything that just shows how crapy thier ground is!!!!!!!!
do they have thier stock ground? cause if so thats why!
cause it cannt pull enough juice from the battery upfront thru the ground cable.... which inturns pulls it from the cap cause it cannt get enough voltage thru the factory ground wire which is small as hell!



tell him to upgrade his ground wires to some 1/0gauge
its called the big 3 upgrade....
battery to body battery to frame and battery to engine block... as well as 4gauge wire from your alternator to the battery...

if you do the big 3 upgrade and ditch the cap your dimming should be mostly ellimitated... now im not going to say all of it cause no clue how large or efficent your electrical system and system are....

ask around ANY well knownAUDIO FORUM......... you will hear the same!


hell look at your stock alt it reads what 70amps stock... so your car can pull up to 70amps ALONE.... which is what your ground system was designed for...... now add a stereo system pullen juice from those same STOCK ground wires... and the wires are to small which then inturn limits your voltage transfere which inturns makes your lights dim...... UPGRADE THEM GROUNDS BOY!
