imupabove Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 sup people. i got a Rockford 1 farad digital capacitor (RFC1D). i had it for a while now. im still getting dimming and voltage drops, not really sure if it helped me a little or not. people are saying it does more harm than it can help me, true? i have a buddy that wants to buy it and i was thinking on saving up on the electrical, maybe a HC600 in the trunk? what you ladies/fellers think?

Caps do absolutly nothing to help unless you have little(.3-.5) to no voltage drop, if you have no drop it could help to smooth out peaks in music I.E. a drum Kick etc...... I would sell it, most people that arent very deep into audio will think it will help, so it wont be hard to unload. And an HC600-1400 would help alot more than a cap ever would. And if you want to keep it for the voltage readout, just go get a stinger volt meter from Darvex instead. Edited March 21, 2010 by CaptainzPlanetz Quote ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............

imupabove Posted March 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 having a second batt., will that stress out my stock alt? or should i just invest in a HO alt?

CaptainzPlanetz Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 having a second batt., will that stress out my stock alt? or should i just invest in a HO alt? No a single battery extra battery wont hurt, to keep the extra battery charged will only add about 5 amps extra to keep it charged. IIRC Boon ran something crazy like 10-15 batterys off the stock alt and the alt never died, though thats not ideal LOL. Quote ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............

MACnonsence6 Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 if your worried about the stock alt just do the big 3 upgrade that should help some Quote I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today. This thing sounds amazing. 130 watts, 12" woofer with a passive 12" woofer tuned to 27 hz. Moving the pictures on the walls and my girl got wet from the bass when i showed her haha. Tonight should be good haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
