If the capacitor is brand new, you will need to give it a charge first. If you just hook it up in line with your system you will ruin the capacitor and it could possible detonate if improperly charged. Follow directions provided with the capacitor, if none are available seek a professional installer.

I don't own a capacitor but from what I understand, you would hook it up like normal and let the driving around charge it. Since it's not in used constantly, it would charge when it's not being discharged, meaning when it's not hitting those intensive notes.

It's best to install it as close to the amp as possible. You may need to get addition power and ground wire the same size you have now. Otherwise, cut the ground and power wire leaving enough room to mount it. The overall length of the ground wire should as short as possible (18" or less if possible, not critical).

Remove the fuse at the battery. If you don't have one, you need one that is rated the same as the total fuses that are on the amp. It must be no more than 18" from the battery.

Which Stereo Setup is the best?


To charge the cap, get a 12v light bulb with leads. Temporarily connect the power wire from the battery to one side of the bulb (at the fuse) and connect the other side of the bulb to the wire going to the cap. The bulb will light and over a period of time (10-20 seconds) it will get dimmer. When the bulb goes out, the cap is charged. Basically, your going to put the light bulb where the fuse was.
