My Sound Setup *edit-pics now*

Caps can go either way but the best way is larger alternator and a nice Optima!

I don't think the cap uses all its power in one shot, unless it absolutely needs it. If your headlights are dimming everytime the bass hits, adding a capacitor will supply the extra power needed for the amp to go to the amp instead of sucking it from the main power, not affecting the lights. I still don't really trust them though. I've had lights dim even with a cap and yellow-top optima installed. Bigger alternator is the only way to go.

Caps are just a band-aid if that. It's just another thing for the electrical system to charge so when you have dimming lights it ain't gonna do anything.

Upgrading the big-3 fixed my lights in my old car. Battery and alternator, only way to go.

Well at least I'm not sounding like an idiot. It's just a theory that I was running with that seemed logical.

[Interfire]

Your theory is correct.

aww you guys making me feel like i wasted 35$ for nothing lol

but i dont have any problem with the lights dimming...and i guess i will have to upgrade the alternator at a future time.

[TLS2000]

Man, I wasn't trying to knock your system.

Caps do have a use, I just see it as limited.

[Interfire]

Well it's worth $35 just for the digital readout. Ok maybe not but it's still cool.

If your lights don't dim at all, your perfectly ok.

[Interfire]

Your system it still nice though, Type R's are awesome.
