If you say your car struggles to start, then you need a new battery and/or alternator already. What size power and ground wires are you running to the amp? Also, a capacitor isn't necessary for your setup. Are these the subs? http://cgi.ebay.com/Quantum-Audio-15-Sub_W0QQitemZ280166708294QQihZ018QQcategory Z18804QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |
