I found that when I lost the anchor for my boat, I used an old cap and it worked just fine.

But they DO hurt, if your electrical system is already having problems. It's like adding another battery, you have more draw, be it masked with a cap.

i dunno u can put it behind your alternator to shunt noise works quiet nicely actually. caps dont do much but they dont hurt anything either.

Take it back, and put the money towards a bigger alt, and batt. That will do wonders more then just a cap.

the best thing to use a cap for on a car is to put it behind your wheel to keep your car from rolling.

btw prepare yourself to take a lot of flack over a cap.... very very controversial piece of equipment

they basically get power and ground either inline with the amplifier or my preference is to feed it off the dist block with a 4 guage power wire and ground
